Serving Others With Joy.

YOUR WORLD IS CHANGING DRASTICALLY!

You had a hard time living up to the expectations of others and or even yourself. You used to follow a set of rules, regulations and conduct that others may have expected. You may have felt the need to conform to those around you. You just desired to fit in. You wanted to be accepted or needed. Now you have been introduced to a new way of thinking and living. Jesus is in the process of renewing your mind.

WHAT DO I DO NOW?

Reading your Bible and sitting under good solid Biblical teaching will begin your journey of understanding. God has a great purpose for you as an individual. You no longer have to conform to the world’s image. You now have a desire to conform to the Lord’s image.

AM I REALLY CHANGING?

You are released from being pushed by the ever moving flow of humanity and are standing like a rock in a stream, not easily driven forward by the flow. This happens because there is a new inner man (or woman) immerging. The design God had intentioned for you is now budding forth in newness of life. The Holy Spirit begins giving you concern for others and a desire to reach out through creative ways to enhance or improve their lives.

SERVICE UNTO THE LORD HAS BEGUN.

Love becomes your motivation to serve and brings an inner peace to your soul. Jesus himself came to earth to serve, not to be served. He is our example. You’re becoming more like Jesus when you lay down your own desires and enjoy doing things for others. You will find enjoyment, newness of life, restoration and regeneration.

HOW DO I KNOW WHERE TO SERVE?

Service opportunities abound. Your eyes are open to accept joyfully the freedom that allows you to step into new rolls which include new areas to serve. No need to strive in this, God will show you when, where and how. Prayerfully ask the Lord to show you if you should serve in your local church and or a Christian ministry in your community. Believe me, both areas will welcome you with open arms! I love the following scripture from Romans 7:6:

“But now we have been released from the law, having died to that by which we were bound, so that we serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter.”

Experience the Masters’ love when you serve through His grace.

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT:

*You are a new creation in Christ

*Fill yourself with God’s Word

*Start noticing the needs of others

*Ask the Lord to direct your steps

*Enjoy serving others
