Day 33: How Real Servants Act

Image
"I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves."  Matthew 10:16 The word servant has been taken out of today's society.  It has been a word with burden, hurt, and feeling of being inferior.  It has been misused, abused, and taken advantage of.  It is no wonder why so many of us shy away from it only to let the me first mentality take over.  It is important to rekindle the word for its positive stand point.  We were built to be servants and in serving; we serve God. One of the hardest parts of serving in today's society is lack of time.  So many of us are consumed by status-who we know, who knows us, how much money we make, our job title, what labels we wear,etc.  God is not asking us to drop everything and become a holy gypsy.  He is merely asking us to be available when divine appointments arrive.  We will have to make sacrifices and let go of control as most times we a...

Day 32: Using What God Gave You

Image
"What you are is God's gift to you; what you do with yourself is your gift to God."  Danish Proverb Most of us have a good idea of what some of our capabilities are.  Some of us naturally have abilities like singing, dancing, being able to remember facts, playing sports, public speaking, etc., but what if we have a hard time pinpointing our gifts.  It is all about trial and error-an experiment!  Many people do not know what they are good at until they try something new, something that scares them, something they never thought they would do.  Asking the people that are closest to us is also a good starter.  Make sure they know it is not a fish for compliments but an honest question.  They can probably think of things you have not. Next, think about how your life's experiences and situations have helped to shape you.  Take some time out of the hussle and bussle to see how God has worked in your life-through pain, fears, joys, sorrows, m...

Day 31: Understanding Your Shape

Image
"Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms."  1 Peter 4:10 Each one of us is born unique and house abilities that are part of a bigger story.  Our natural abilities were given to us by God as a piece of a puzzle.  No one else has our distinct make-up or can fit where God has placed us.  We were all made for His purpose.  It is just as important to build our spiritual abilities as using our natural abilities. First, acknowledge your abilities and be grateful for what He has given you.  It could be accounting, managing, creativity, baking, teaching, good with a certain age group, leading, fitness, etc.  Second, find a way to use your ability for the good of others.  Thirdly, donate some of your earnings or time for the grace God.  This could be doing a service free of charge, donating to a church or organization, or helping your community. Being u...

Day 30: Shaped For Serving God

Image
"There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. 5 There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. 6 There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. "  1 Corinthians 12:4-6 S piritual Gifts H eart A bilities P ersonality E xperience Each of us is given gifts by God.  None of us receive them all and each of us has a unique set of them-no two codes alike.  God wanted us to rely on others' and that is why we are all so unique in our spiritual gifts.  Be thankful for the gifts you do have and be blessed when some one enters your life with a gift you have not received.  Learn to lean on them so to let them use their gift and vice versa. Our heart is the center of our motivation.  It is our desires, interest, ambitions, and dreams.  " Your heart determines why you say the things you do, why you feel the way you do, and why you act the way you do. "  (W...

Day 29: Accepting your Assignment

Image
"But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved."  Ephesians 2:4-5   Life is a two way street not just where we take by eatting and breathing but where also give by contributing.  First and foremost we were put here to serve God.  We are part of the ministry he sacrificed His life to enable.  We do not have to be deacons, priests or other clergy to minister.  We are commanded by God to serve and is not optional if we are to be christian.  Once we have grown spiritually and accepted God;'s grace, we must utilize what He has tought us.  It is not enough just to learn it-we must impliment it every day.  The trouble with this day in age is God has been taken out of most every thing including our lives.  Science takes away every day miracles.  We are left with a stagnate life. ". . .if you don't wake up tomor...
