Cleaning Up, Making Safe

You might say, All I ever do is clean up after people .   As a janitor,  I'm  sweeping floors day in and day out .   I clean them, and other people  get them  dirty .   I clean the bathrooms, and they get dirty again .   I just want a job that matters .   I'm   gonna  quit my job and go into  full -time ministry .   STOP .   You are not  just  a janitor .   You have a unique set of gifts, talents, and abilities that God has given you to see dirt and know how to clean .   You see a mess and know how to bring  order .   You know how to fix things .   You know how to clean things .   You know how to make things safe.   All of that stuff is very important.   You are gifted, and you are called .   Just imagine a world where everyone who is a janitor quits their job to go into full-time ministry .   That's  not  a world  I want to live in.
