Mark 10:43-44
Whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you shall make himself slave of all.
---- Mine, T
o serve is the highest calling of all but one must serve in love and humility. Your service must not be half hearted begrudging, selfish, hoping to gain something either spiritual or temporal. One serves in imitation of Me, I came to serve and the servant is not greater than the Master. One can be at the service of others in little ways by listening and easing another's loneliness by being available. There are plenty of opportunities to serve each day and if you make use of them, you will find that all you are called to do each day can be used an an opportunity to lay your life down in service of the other. Check the hasty word, hold yourself back from making a hasty judgment, praise rather than find fault, lift up instead of tearing down. Service offered with a moan and groan is no service at all. Ask the Holy Spirit and He will help you grow in humility and love then the giving of yourself will become a joy.
