Episode Synopsis

President Ronald Reagan (1911-2004). The 40th President of the United States of America said, 'SURROUND yourself WITH the BEST PEOPLE you can FIND, delegate AUTHORITY, and DON'T interfere.' Yet in our EAGERNESS to PLEASE God we take on RESPONSIBILITIES that are 'too heavy...to handle...by  [ourselves].'  Moses was SPENDING every waking minute LISTENING to COMPLAINTS from long LINES of people. Finally his father-in-law said, 'You are going to wear yourself out- and the people, too,' and advised him to appoint capable leaders to 'help...carry the load' (v.22). lt was a win-win solution; the PEOPLE got help FASTER, and Moses BECAME a better LEADER. One Bible teacher writes: 'One of our GREATEST challenges...is DETERMINING what God DOESN'T want US to do! We LOVE God, we LOVE His people, and we SEE many NEEDS. But sometimes good INTENTIONS cause more HARM than GOOD...When you BECOME AWARE of a NEED, don't AUTOMATICALLY assume God WANTS you to MEET it. 

The only REASON to perform MINISTRY is when God CLEARLY tells YOU it's His will. If you are OVERWHELMED...you are PROBABLY doing MORE than God asked. Pray ABOUT the ASSIGNMENTS you TAKE on, so you DON'T rob YOURSELF and OTHERS of God's best.' Jon Walker, an American musician adds: 'lmagine if God created you to be the Michelangelo(1475-1564) an Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet) of this AGE but you STAYED so busy DOING all kinds of things-good things- that you NEVER got AROUND to painting and sculpting. You did END up MISSING the best BECAUSE you got DISTRACTED chasing the GOOD. What a DISAPPOINTMENT...for God...and all the PEOPLE who WOULD have BEEN blessed if you DID stayed FOCUSED on your ORIGINAL purpose.' Learn to DELEGATE. Release the BURDENS God never MEANT you to CARRY, and FOCUS on what He CALLED you to DO.
