The Pretender

"No one can serve two masters.... You cannot serve both God and Money. ... Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" -- Matthew 6: 24-26

I'm looking for something to pay the bills while I move toward (hopefully) effective ministry. My current situation is that I had a good job interview the other afternoon and will learn more later this week. I'm hoping they don't low ball me or make me a borderline offer. I don't need much because we've downsized and have no debts, so ... I'm also looking at going to school to earn a degree that should take me less than 3 years to complete.

I like "The Pretender" because it's about choice we make and how we compromise for money. I don't want to do that. I don't want to be a happy idiot and struggle for the legal tender. Been there done that. After all, I'm worth more a sparrow. I want to aim at serving a higher purpose and not to just earn money to pay the bills until I die.
