FOR SERVANTS ONLY #8: A Heavenly Exercise
When we serve others with a godly spirit, we are setting an example in spiritual leadership. Maybe you teach a Bible class or vacuum the carpet in the foyer. Maybe you drive someone to church or hold the door open for the one coming in behind you.
These are all examples of what Christ would do. In fact, if we are filled with Him when we serve, we are like little Christs, like tiny lights reflecting the grand Light of the World in a dark and needy land.
When Jesus washed his disciples' feet, he was teaching them what the Father values and what is very common in heaven: Serving others! To serve with joy is to reproduce a heavenly activity here on earth. What a privilege it is to be a Christian!
(John 13:15)
