"You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love." - Galatians 5:13
E. Stanley Jones was an evangelist to India during the twentieth century and is often referred to as the “Billy Graham of India”.
His granddaughter Dr. Anne Mathews-Younes writes that Jones outlived his life by investing in others.
She wrote “Up until the age of 87, E. Stanley Jones kept up a rigorous and active life – It is estimated that he preached more than 60,000 sermons – sometimes 5-7 a day. I heard him preach that many times a day. I was tired. He was not.”
His ministry to others continues more than 40 years after his death through his books that speak of timeless issues.
On the subject of Christian service, Jones said: “The man is not greatest who has the greatest number of servants, but the man is greatest who serves the greatest number of people.”
When we serve one another, we glorify our Father in Heaven. Today in prayer, thank Jesus that He showed us how to serve. Seek to serve others to bring glory to Christ.
"No man was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave.” – Calvin Coolidge
God's Word: "The greatest among you will be your servant. For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted." - Matthew 23:11-12
