Turn Your Struggles To Service
Posted by Warm Southern Breeze on Tuesday, July 18, 2017
Research suggests that more than 5 million Americans are problem or compulsive gamblers. Though he lived some 500 years ago, Saint Camillus (1550-1614) would be able to relate because he suffered from the same problem as a young man. In fact, he lost everything he owned by gambling — which perhaps contributed to his ability a bit later in life to leave everything behind to follow Jesus, eventually founding an order dedicated to caring for the sick. Perhaps you think you could never be of much service to God because of some problem or difficult habit. But God doesn’t work that way. There is a good chance that your deepest struggle holds the key to your path of service. You are called, just as you are!
