Ask God for grace so that all of your thoughts and deeds will be directed purely. Ask that you will hear His call and be ready to perform it.
Consider good leaders - kings, queens, presidents, prime-ministers - who people pay deference toward and obey. Think about how they talk to their people, saying: "I have a vision. Whoever would like to be like me, eat as I eat, drink as I drink, dress as I dress, should labour with me day and night so that you may share this with me in victory, as you have shared in the work.
How do you think people should respond to the offer of such a leader? If you did not accept the appeal of such a leader you would be censured by the world and called mean-spirited.
Now apply the above thinking to the eternal God. He calls, saying: "I have a vision to defeat evil in the world and enter into the glory of love. Whoever would like to come with me is to labour with me, suffer with me, and so enter into eternal glory with me". Any reasonable person would join in this work.
Think about your day. Think how you can do something during your day to join this work. Think about how you can continue to do things into the future.
