The Body


"There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men." ~ 1 Corinthians 12:4-6

One thing I've learned from being an entrepreneur is that everyone has a calling. Everyone has something that they're good at, something that God has blessed them to do better than everyone else.

The flip side of the coin, however, is that everyone is not called to do everything. Not everyone's called to be a singer, for instance (see American idol auditions). Not everyone is good at math. Not everyone's called to be rich and famous like Donald Trump or the ability to galvanize millions of people like President Obama.

The key to success, however, is finding that thing you are called to do. For Christians, it's finding your place in the body.

That's where the magic happens. Because when you're operating in that which you are called to do, you allow others to operate in that which they are called to do and the entire body operates more efficient and effective.

So what's your calling? Where's your place in the world?

Find it and you'll open yourself up to a world of possibilities.

God bless,
J.W.
