As I lay down on my bed to sleep my mind is wide awake - why is that? 
However, I made a realization today. I know - I know  -that God has  called each person to a certain destiny or life calling, and I always  wanted mine to be glorious - like a missionary who lead a whole tribe to  Christ, or a nurse who healed the next Billy Grahm - or just simply who  helped to heal people -that is an awesome calling in and of itself, or a  preacher that reached the next Joel Olstein. But as I lay there  thinking about God's calling on people's lives, I realize that there are  those that are called from God out of a cloud in the sky - no mistaking  His calling on their lives, and then there are those who are called out  of the quietness of His voice. These people don't need a sign from  Heaven, because Heaven is in their daily lives and hearts. They long to  do God's will simply because they long to have a sincere devotion to  Him. Anything Christ asks of them, they willing and wholeheartedly do -  no matter how insignificant it may be to the world - not because they  feel forced to do it - but because they love Christ so much that  anything they do they feel is not even deserving of doing. These people  desire Christ - simply Christ - nothing more and nothing less. They  cannot live without Christ, nor breathe with out Christ. He is simply  their all - their life force. Anything in life is simply meaningless.  They don't need a shout from the sky -they just need their Savior to  live through them, and maybe, just maybe encourage those who have been  called from the sky to be all the Christ has seen and desires them to  be. Our jobs are never ceasing because as we begin to see through the  eyes of Christ, or work is never done. Our prayers must be vigilant,  must be all consuming, no matter if we get hurt in the process, because  we desire Christ and His heart to beat within ours beyond anything else.  
Christ is our all, nothing more, nothing less! He is our everything!
