There are many ways to fulfill this greatest commandment. Some may decide to make the ultimate sacrifice, by giving themselves totally to the service of the Kingdom of God as ordained ministers or religious. And yes, we adore and love them, and often give them highest priorities in any celebrations, and sometimes reward them financially or with a plague of recognition. After all they take care of our spiritual needs.
Yet others do so in their own little, hidden, unrecognized ways...so often unrewarded and soon forgotten. We oftentimes neglect to acknowledge their presence and contribution to our life and society. For instance, the janitors, garbage collectors, hard labourers, migrant workers...they received meagre wage for a hard day's work, and sometimes we marginalized them as unimportant. How cruel and selfish can we be.
Of course, the average person does love and serve as best as they could and know how, according to their status and positions in life. Some does it for recognition, example charitable works ~ others do it out of obligation, because the leaders, church, mosque, temple or law require it from them...All intention is good.
There is another kind of loving and serving God's people...which is a most difficult task. The work and mission of an insurance life agent! How wrongly to think that an agent's job is merely to sell! The truth is, we are doing them a great favour, by making them aware of the importance of having their financial future secured...mishaps, illness and accidents happen at the most unpredictable time. We don't need insurance while we are young and healthy. It is only when we get into trouble that we begin to regret, etc...so, the insurance agent takes care of our "financial" needs...not directly, but through consultation services. We give you recommendations, but ultimately, we respect your decision!
!Viva los agentes! Agentes por Dios!
