Theresa

The name Theresa means ‘a worker’. A worker is one who gets things done so that there is order in her world. Now, whether the work is done by herself or done by someone else doesn’t matter, the work does get done. This is what God has called Theresa to do in His Kingdom. But only until she totally gives herself unto God and His service will she be filled with the Spirit of Wisdom that enables her to do what He has called her to do and do them well.

Theresa has always had a need to be doing something .As a child Theresa was almost certainly busy either doing something she felt was important, or working at some project and probably trying to get others involved in these same efforts. Her world was always in need of some kind of improvement and she felt she was the one who should be doing it. Things can always be better.

People tend to admire Theresa’s ability and talents, wishing they could do the same. Theresa tells them that they too can do these things for it is her desire to uplift and encourage her brothers and sisters in the Lord in order that they to will be busy working. She believes that if they only would apply themselves they really could do the same exact same things that she does. But truth be told other people really cannot do the same things as Theresa unless they too have been called the same as she to do the same things with the same calling as the Lord has placed on her life. This is not to say that only Theresa or those with a name of a similar meaning are able to do great works. Of course they can because God is not a respecter of persons.

            However, we each have our own calling, abilities and talents. And we are all to work and live together as a family who love each other. There are no better gifts or callings and no one is more specially gifted than another. It may take Theresa a while to find that place in her family where she thrives: maybe even later in her life rather than sooner. But she will, that is, if she puts action to what she hears the Lord tell her.

Psa. 111:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do His commandments] His praise endureth forever.
