What profession do you admire most and why?
This is a very interesting question and one I find hard to answer. I have lots of professions that I admire like nurses, teachers, carers, police, occupational therapists and firemen. But I cannot place one above the rest.
As I thought about this I found it is not so much the job role, but the way they do it that impresses me. Anyone can do a job, but not everyone can do it with a servant heart of love.
Years ago I worked for the Immigration department. One of my co-workers was in the compliance area. It is where people who overstay their visas or get in trouble often find themselves and end up being deported.
As you can imagine this is a very full on area. You have to be part investigator, part policemen, part negotiator. One person I worked with was a Christian and he did his role different to the rest. He did it with compassion, service, love. This really stood out to me.
As I think about it today, yes I have professions I admire, but it is more about having a servant heart and loving others as you do it. This is what stands out for me and inspires me the most.
