In Kingdom Work and Ministry...
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

In kingdom work and ministry you can:
Opt out and say, “No thank you. It’s not for me. I have better things to do.”
Burn out and say, “I’m exhausted and have nothing left to give.”
Rust out and say, “Ho hum. I tried it and find it boring. Perhaps I’ll do more another day.”
Bail out and say, “I over promised. It’s not what I thought it would be.”
 
Or you can take Jesus’ yoke upon you and say:
“I’m all in.”
“I’m not alone.”
“I do what He’s doing, at His pace.”
“Nothing is in vain, everything matters.”
“I don’t strive. I am at rest. I am content.”
“I am joined to an easy yoke and a light burden.”
“My joy is found in pleasing Him”
 
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light (Matthew 11:28-30 NKJV).
