service

We must strive to become more daily. We must honestly assess our weaknesses and overcome them. We must work toward the highest possible version of ourselves. This is a worthy use of our time, but it is only when we do so with the ultimate aim of service to our fellow man that we really connect with something greater than ourselves. To contribute to the world in a positive way, this is the gift of life.

The beautiful truth about service is that we are afforded countless opportunities to be its vehicle. Every interaction with another is an opportunity to serve. From simply letting someone into your lane in traffic, to holding a door, to a kind smile. This is all service. I am humbled by this simple truth. We are given the opportunity to express the most meaningful use of our lives every time we interact with another sentient being.

Let's live our lives with great meaning and purpose in the attempt to influence the world to whatever degree our circumstance allows.

There is, in fact, a paradox about working to serve the community, and it is this: that to aim directly at serving the community is to falsify the work; the only way to serve the community is to forget the community and serve the work.

The point of the calling was, quite simply, that it was appointed by God to serve neighbors. If along the way some self-fulfillment came as well, there was nothing wrong with that, but it was hardly the point of the calling.

A call to duty, a call for service.

What liberated our souls, we live to serve.

Liberation of sacred souls connects to specific service.

If you have a ministry, dedicate yourself to it, do everything with love and with a clean heart

God has His reward for everyone

Do not seek recognition or gratification from man _ serve the Lord. He knows how to reward everyone

Serve the Lord, do not look for excuses

Do not wait until you are rich before you start working for the Lord

God wants you to start doing something now. Begin with the little things you have the ability to do and He will help you

A gentle answer turns away wrath.

To live more for God and others one must die more to self and sin.

Empathy is a quality today that we need more than ever. Throughout his life Jesus showed empathy and care for others on a level never seen before. From him we learn that Gods ways of service to others before obsession with self is the path he wants us to walk on and deep down we know it.

Render unto God the things that are God__
