Are you a believer in Christ who is laboring in ministry in some obscure place, feeling relatively unnoticed, overlooked or unappreciated? Recently, I came across this quote by George Whitefield* that is very much worth considering:
“He is unworthy the name of a Christian who is not as willing to hide himself when God commands, as to act in a public capacity.”
Maybe, for the time being, God has you hidden. Be grateful that God uses you at all—wherever He may choose to use you. Remember, He knows you—and He notices you. Be faithful.
