Great Seats!

It seems that somewhere along the way most of us picked up this idea that we are critical to the mission.  Not sure where it came from but the truth, as I get it more and more, is that when we have the privilege of being a part of the ministry we are in the front row seats getting to watch up close and personal what God is doing in our communities.  Here is the question, why do we need to keep those seats to ourselves? Why should we not let others enjoy those seats?  Why do we continually fight to keep our place when we know that God has another seat for us, somewhere else?
Could the answer be that we have a skewed idea of who God really is along with a twisted idea of who we really are?
