People’s job titles can be misleading. What do you think about these job titles?
Field Development Consultant – Waiter
Director of First Impressions – Receptionist
Randomness Manager – Administraror
Alphabet Re-arranger – Writer
Silly really! I don’t like my description of being a alphabet re-arranger, I put my heart and soul into every word I write. It all sounds like a party game one would play with the children. But these days we don’t actually say things as they are. Elaborate words mask the truth and jobs are elevated by their stupid titles.
I’m pleased our Savour is not like that. The Bible says it like it is. We can read, ‘the wages of sin is death.’ Romans 6:23. Not at all ambiguous. The world tells us that we can do anything we want to do if we try hard enough. Not true. We can only do all things through Christ. ‘I can do all things through Christ who strengths me.’ Phil 4:13. It is like telling someone to pull themselves up by their own shoelaces. It’s great fun to get children doing this but it does prove the point.
We are told ‘My help comes from the Lord,’ Psalms 121:1. If we can’t sleep we are told to count sheep or more up-to-date, try mindfulness and all will be well. I’d rather turn to the Bible .
