I have a friend from high school (Rachel Chaplin), who is now a world-class oboist. She was one of the few other Christians in our preppy, academic school.
A few years ago, she told me she was feeling called to write sacred music & we had a big conversation about vocation.

Rachel pointed out that Bach didn't know he was Bach. He was just doing his job. His job was to write the cantatas, while another guy's job was to take out the trash. Both of them were worshiping God with the work He'd given them & they just got on with it.
So, whatever work God's given you today, work at it with all your heart, as working for Him. Don't agonize over whether you're "good enough" to do the work, or whether the work is "good enough" for you to do.
It's Christ we're serving, so let's get on with it! #preachingtomyself
