Servanthood

Yesterday our church held a volunteer appreciation luncheon. We have many in our church who serve in various positions in the church. I am certain there are many more who serve in the community as well. It is right to honor each other for our good deeds.

Servanthood requires an attitude of humility. There are many ways to serve. A servant is an amateur, one who does what needs to be done out of love.

Today I say Thank You to everyone who volunteers in service of God and humanity! you are a blessing!

Father God, bless those who are giving of their time to help others. Bless them with joy in their service, love flowing back to them, and many acts of kindnesses done in service for them! Teach me to be a willing, humble and joyful servant.
