How often have we heard the phrase “in the service of God”?
This morning, it occured to me that such a service is no easy thing, nor is it something we can just claim and add to the fulfillment of our egos.
Serving God. What service can we offer to a God who possesses everything and who has within His power all that He could ever desire? What service does He need from us who at most, could only render a sincere yet imperfect work?
Service is an act of love and an act of gratitude. If we should ever perform it, it is nothing that we should hold Gold in owe to us, but something we ought to be happy for, for God has allowed us to render it and make our joy complete! 🙂

One reply on “Serving God?”
You actually make it seem really easy together with your presentation however I in finding this matter to be actually something that I think I might never understand. It sort of feels too complex and very wide for me. I am looking ahead on your subsequent publish, I will try to get the hold of it!
