Things changed.
I don't think that I am the only one that feels this way about ministry. Recently I was talking to this friend of mine over whatsapp and I was actually explaining why am I so unhappy and all then somehow the conversation lead to us talking about serving at church. I mean, serving in church is something you volunteer yourself to do. But we both realised that now, somehow, it became a thing where 'you will be noticed if you are exceptionally good, if not you are serving endlessly' I think sometimes people don't feel appreciated in this case. I was telling that friend of mine about being in usher and dance ministry and what are the things that are going on there.. Just 2 days ago, on saturday, XYZ told me to stay back after service cause she wanted to talk to me. So all I was thinking was like.. oh just a simple chat kind of thing. But then I realised that her talking to me = birthday celebration with section. I mean, seriously you have to go all this effort and even 'lie' to me just to get me to celebrate birthday? No. Then all the more I won't go. If you said that you were going to talk to me, what normal people think would be those one-to-one talk, but no. It's kind of sad some stuff changed over the years and things get a little disappointing. |
