Service Is Love, In Action

Good Morning!! We see someone stranded on the side of the highway,...but before we can stop to help, we automatically consider several excuses; such as our lack of time, and our own safety. While we are thinking of not helping,...consider this message of Jesus, regarding care for the stranger: "I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me" (Matt. 25:36, NIV).

Render service with enthusiasm, as to the Lord and not to men and women, knowing that whatever good we do, we will receive the same again from the Lord.—Ephesians 6:7 (NRSV)

We must realized that despite our attitude and feelings, God is giving us an opportunity to fulfill a key principle. Agree to help, remember to meet each new day with expectancy, for the opportunities it will offer. Be well, be blessed, and be a blessing,...it's a full time job.

When we serve others, we serve, honor, and love God.

Holy Spirit, help us to serve others with the same enthusiasm and love, that we have for God. In Jesus' name, Amen.

"We are made for service,...service to our God,...and service to each other."
