God isn't always a puppet master. Is He?
God doesn't want him to be miserable. Does He?

The sad thing would be that any of the reasoning for anyone being miserable would simply be because their current situation didn't line up to what we are taught success is.
30 souls. Wow... how fantastic.
How wonderful is it to fellowship together with a this portion of the family of God and to say, when it is all said and done, that you had taught, led, helped and otherwise assisted 30 of God's children on their journey through this pilgrim land.
What a great thing to be proud of.
But this is viewed by far too many to be a "small work". That leads people to feel like underachievers for some terrible reason.
If anyone has ever ministered 30 people before they would know that it is no small task at all.
