Be Strong And Immovable.
Always Work Enthusiastically For The Lord,
For You Know That Nothing You Do For The Lord Is Ever Useless.
Scripture
1 Corinthians 15
58 So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.
Observation
Yesterday,
I had asked a team of volunteers to help grill steaks for a special Mission’s
lunch after church.
My
team served enthusiastically. They were serving the Lord.
Tired?
Yes, I am sure that everyone that helped serve yesterday left tired, just like
most volunteers that serve on any given Sunday do.
But
without people volunteering to serve there is no church! Our church works
because people sacrifice time and energy to serve God by serving people!
Special
thanks to everyone that served and helped yesterday – doesn’t matter whether it
was at our church or yours – Thanks!
A
little warning to all of us who volunteer and this is coming from my own
personal experience, “Burn out happens when I forget “Who” I am serving!”
I
will look at how I can serve the Lord enthusiastically this week! How about
you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for Your Word today. What I read in 1 Corinthians 15 was just
what I needed this morning! Everyday we have the opportunity to think about
what we are doing and “Who” we are really serving! It is easy for me to see
everything that I think is wrong with something, and miss what You are doing in
the middle of what I see as a mess! Help me to stay focused. Help me to serve
You enthusiastically. I know that it is what You have called me to do!
