Does another ministry (minister) have something you don't have? Numbers 5-8

Numbers 7:9 (NASBStr)

But he did not give any to the sons of Kohath because theirs was the service of the holy objects, which they carried on the shoulder.

In 2 Corinthians we are told that it is not wise when we compare ourselves with each other (2 Corinthians 10:12).   When we see what others have, we tend to want it, even though it is good for them and bad for us.    God does not want us comparing spiritual gifts, as an example.   Those who have the gift of service might find themselves not as favored or validated in our society as those with the gift of administration (leadership).   If we compare ourselves we might become jealous our envious of those in such positions.   This is why God doesn't want us to compare.   The above passage from Numbers is another great example as to why we shouldn't.   In their giving to the Tabernacle construction and administration, the heads of each tribe contributed a number of items, not the least of which was carts to carry the furnishings.   The passage tells who the carts were administrated to and for what service.   However, as the above verse points out, the Kohathites were not allowed to have carts.   They were previously instructed to carry the special furnishings inside the Tabernacle on their shoulders and never put them on a cart.  In fact in 1 Chronicles 15 we read about the death of a man because they used a cart and the man touched the Ark.   In our society, especially in our politically correct-union mindset, we would never let one person have a burden and then provide relief to others.   If one man gets a cart they all get a cart.  If one student gets an iPad, they all get an iPad.  We would never allow what God did to happen in our society.   But, this is what God said to those in His service.  We EACH have a different burden.  1 Corinthians 12 tells us that God gave us different gifts, as HE PLEASES.    And, with those gifts He gives us differing responsibilities and differing burdens.   He only promises one thing: Whatever the burden He will provide the strength (1 Corinthians 10:13.   God does not promise we will all have the same job, talents, gifts or skill sets.  He does promise we all have the same mission and the same power to carry out our tasks: The ministry of the Holy Spirit in our lives.   Don't be envious of the gifts and tools others have to do their ministry. Lean on God for the power He gives you to do your job with the tools He gives you.
