Learning from Low Points and the Difference Between Calling and Commissioning in Ministry

In times of low points, there is an opportunity to learn about God and oneself. There is a difference between being called and being commissioned in ministry. Jeremiah was called as a prophet from before he was conceived, but didn't start his ministry for a long time. Jesus was called before the foundations of the earth, but didn't start his ministry until he was in his thirties. It is important to wait for the right timing and not get ahead of schedule. Commissioning is about timing and taking action in the present. It is necessary to sew in the direction of full-time ministry by serving in small groups and practicing gifts in less flashy places.
