Whoever

Wants To Be A Leader

Among You Must Be Your Servant

Scripture

Matthew 20

²⁶ But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant,
 
²⁷ and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave.
 
²⁸ For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Observation

This is a great passage for me getting ready for Sunday! Tomorrow I have the chance to serve others and today I am reminded by God just how important it is to have a servant attitude as I get ready for Sunday!

Do you ever think about that on Saturday … getting ready to serve on Sunday? At our church if you are wearing a “Start Something Good” orange t-shirt you are marked as person who serves!

I think it is wonderful to see so many people on Sunday proudly wearing “orange” and serving one another!

So get out your orange t-shirt and be ready to serve God tomorrow by serving people.

Don’t have an orange t-shirt but you would like to serve? Just ask someone wearing an orange t-shirt tomorrow and they would be glad to sign you up to serve!

Now I know that Sunday is not the only time we are supposed to serve others but Sunday does provide us a great opportunity.

Application

 I will wear my orange t-shirt tomorrow and I will be ready to serve. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I know that I am not here on planet earth to have people serve me. I understand that by serving those around me I am serving You. Give me a servant’s heart. Help me please You by serving others.
