You know, back in high school band, I played the trombone. With that instrument, not many lead parts come up. We are forced to play a lot of those background parts. Now you may say, “That sucks, I want those top parts”. You will be correct, I wanted those parts. However I had to accept the fact that the background parts are just as important. Why do I mumble about this? Well look at your life. If you believe in God, and Jesus Christ, you no longer play the lead parts. He plays the lead. We play the background. It’s that simple, and I fear that our world is starting to all play the lead. There is too much lead coming out, and less background.
You, the reader, listen up to me for a second. Your life, it’s not your life you live anymore when you become saved. You are now in the image of Jesus, and you need to represent Him, and not yourself. You cannot play that lead part any longer. This is important in life because you need to realize that you are not in charge anymore, God is! How can you fix this if you think you’re playing the lead?
Well, just step aside, and let God play the beautiful music that he’s been playing since the beginning. Not to say yours is not beautiful, the background flows the music along. You keep it sounding good. Play the background.
thanks for reading!!!!
and don’t ever forget….JESUS LOVES YOU!!!
