The Help...

The Help…

There is a difference between “The Help” and “A Worker”.  It’s part of the reason why racism is still prevalent and running rampant through the veins of this nation.  Folk want to see us still as the help and not necessarily as a respected worker; carrying the same responsibilities for life, family and community as they bear.

The help doesn’t have to be acknowledged with basic etiquette when a room that they are in is entered into.  However, a co-worker is due that minimal respect.

The help’s feelings don’t get hurt and if they do, so what, you’re the help.

The help need not concern themselves with the political current of this nation.  “A servant isn’t privy to his master’s business”.

If you’re seen as the help, then you cannot be view as a friend. 

Are we co-workers with Christ? If so, then we are His friends – and are treated as such – privy to all that He knows of the Father.

“They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God. “

For the love of God and country…  The roles are now reversed and it’s no longer about God but about country and whenever we reverse the two and God is no longer first and foremost, we fall away.

“All this I have told you so that you will not fall away.”

“For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.”

“As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain.”

If you’re not working in the kingdom, then you just might be the help and thus why you are treated as such.
