It is a sad and lonely existence to live for your own happiness and your own glory. The amazing paradox of the gospel message is that when you surrender your life to Christ and live for his glory and for the good of others, you find that your own life has meaning and joy in the process!
The radical change that took place in the lives of those common shepherds, and in the heart of everyone who is transformed by the gospel, is that they were liberated from the tyranny of self! There are many who will tell you that the promise of the gospel is a transformed life, they are right! But that transformation is not necessarily a change in your career, or your material wealth, or your earthly security. It is a transformation of your heart!
When you come to Christ it is entirely likely that you will stay in the same job, the same bank account, the same marriage, the same town, and the same network of friendships, but you will not be the same! The simple point is that you do not have to change careers to glorify God. You do not have to move to the city, or the country or Africa, or anywhere else to live a life for his glory.
You simply have to dedicate the life you are already in to him! Your everyday, ordinary, common existence can be for the glory of God!
