Serving God—Serving Others
How do you regularly serve God and others with your life? What can you do every day to serve God and other people?
Our lives are a gift to be given. We have been given abilities, skills, and resources to be used to worship and to serve God, and to serve others.
Jesus gave us everything and serves us, and requested that we serve him by serving one another in selfless humility.
At the last Passover supper with his disciples, before going to the cross, Jesus washed his disciples feet and gave this mandate, saying, “If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.” (John 13:14, ESV).
We are called to be servants of God. We are called to humbly serve God and to serve others with our lives.
May we serve God and serve one another in selfless service as we humbly wash one another’s feet.
A Collect for Guidance: “Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019)
