Ministry is...
Giving when you feel like keeping,
Praying for others when you need to be prayed for,
Feeding others when your own soul is hungry,
Living truth before people even when you can't see results,
Hurting with others when your own hurt can't be spoken,
Keeping your word when it is not convenient,
It is being faithful when your flesh wants to run away.
