Matthew 20:26-28 "...Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave ~~just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and give his life a ransom for many."
Once you say the yes of faith to Jesus and accept His blueprint for the fullness of life, the whole world can no longer revolve around you, your needs, your gratifications, you'll have to revolved around the world, seeking to bandage it's wounds, loving dead men to life, finding the lost, the wanting, the unwanted and leaving far behind all selfish concerns that drain our time and energy. ~John Powell (1927-)
Our Father in heaven, give us servant hearts to follow your example. It's so easy to get carried away with our own wants, needs and desires. May we live as true disciples of Jesus, following his example of serventhood. He came to serve and to save. Give us hearts to serve, and boldness to share the Gospel so men can be saved. Amen.
