Repentance brings responsibility.
In yesterday’s post, I wrote, “Scripture’s examination of us leads to confession.” We saw that confession leads to repentance. In today’s reading, we see repentant people accepting various ministerial responsibilities.
We don’t deal in shekels. Christian worship doesn’t include burnt offerings. But ministers still have responsibilities, and God calls all Jesus-followers to serve as active ministers.
Different ministry roles come with different responsibilities. Whether your role is preaching, teaching, administering, developing children, mentoring emerging adults, caring for aging parents, or something else, repenting (changing) to live for God is a continual process in which we accept various responsibilities. What are yours?
