“I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service.” – 1 Timothy 1:12
Dawn Pick Benson is the founder/CEO of GlobeStory, a content marketing company. She writes the following about service:
“When I was growing up, my dad was a farmer, not a Christian. He had little interest in faith, having been told by his father that the Bible was a fairy tale. But then a local pastor took an interest in my dad, asking if he could help plow the fields on the weekend.
That one act of service spoke louder than words ever could to my dad. By his actions, the pastor made my dad feel loved, and that did more than any preaching could have. He didn’t need convincing about the theological correctness of the Bible; he needed to feel God’s love for him. This pastor met that need in a practical way. And that’s evangelism.”
We serve the Lord when we bring His love to others. Today in prayer, praise the Lord that He has appointed you to serve Him.
"The measure of a man is not how many servants he has, but how many men he serves." - D.L. Moody
God’s Word: “I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness” – Colossians 1:25
