Freedom in Service

12/9/2014

"You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free.  But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love." -Galatians 5:13 (NIV)
We are fortunate to be free and able to make many choices for ourselves.  While we are able to make choices and live freely, we also have a responsibility to help others.  We may be reminded of that throughout this time of year when we see food drives, toy drives, or hear the bells of the Salvation Army ringing to raise money for those less fortunate.  We need to use our freedom to be in service to others.

When we choose to serve others and help them, we shouldn't be in service for recognition.  We are called to serve others humbly.  We have a choice: we can live freely for our own pleasure or we can live freely by serving others in humility.  When we pass up the chances to indulge the flesh, we can find an even greater pleasure in helping and serving in the name of God!


Live freely and find pleasure in humbly serving others!

Prayer:
Dear God-

Thank You for all that You give to me and do for me.  Help me to humbly share what You have given me so that others may know Your glory.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
