For if I do this voluntarily, I have a reward; but if against my will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.What constitutes voluntarily in this verse? Is it wanting to do something on a moment-by-moment basis, where it's always your desire? Or is it an grudging acceptance that something needs to happen, and therefore you've got to get it done?
I feel like for most of my life, I'm not doing what I want to do, just what I'm supposed to be doing. This includes most of my work related to church. There's no one holding a gun to my head or anything, but I can't say that I really want to be doing the work either. Does that mean it's actually voluntary, or is it a stewardship I am obligated to complete?
