“Working Where Placed” By Kirk Hunt
For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you
Titus 1:5 NKJV
Titus was not from Crete, but the Apostle Paul set him in charge of the island. Placed in the middle of chaos, Titus was to bring order. Titus had the job of bringing peace and tranquility to a place of strife and confusion.
Troubleshooters and turn-around artists are important players in modern organizations. Always, the job is difficult and intensive. Often, a man or woman is assigned suddenly, then expected to change the effectiveness and efficiency of a poor performing group.
Impressive results are expected, rapidly. It does not matter if there are deep-seated issues. Even bitter opposition from existing workers or leaders is seen as a small inconvenience on the way to a big success.
God’s Kingdom has its versions of troubleshooters and turn-around artists. Men and women who transform difficult losers into delightful winners. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, and guided by His wisdom and grace, Titus-like saints change everything to the good.
You are placed there by God. All you have to do is convert chaos and disorder into peace and tranquility. Like Titus, you are empowered by God and the Holy Spirit. Work your placement.
Think: I am placed here to work here.
Pray: “Lord, help me to work well where You have placed me.”
