Commitment

How does one decide the things that they will truly be committed? I think there are many factors that go into the answer to this dilemma. Have recently been thinking about why some people seem to be committed and others seems to go through life without such commitments. It dawned on me that everyone is actually committed. Some choose to be committed to being served and others choose to be committed to serving others. The reasons for such choices is very complex and varied. One theory is that much is determined very early in life.
I am also coming to the conclusion that what one chooses to be committed to (self vs service) is really a matter related to their heart. I am in a position where I see a great need for people to commit to serving in a particular area that many currently won't commit. Is it because the need hasn't been illuminated? No! Is it because the task is too hard or there is confusion? Maybe! To get someone to change the objects that they are committed will take a change of their heart. I continue to look for ways that will break the hearts of people!
