Jesus said to His disciples, “Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:26-28 NIV Read full chapter
My thoughts: Do we want to be honored and praised for our ministry or do we seek to serve? To seek exaltation is a snare.
In His Love, Cindy

I constantly remind myself of this very point everyday Cindy; every post is surrendered to His purposes for His glory. The same is true when I prepare to speak at church. If I receive nothing or just a crumb of a blessing I am happy. Thank you for sharing this today. God bless you today sister 🙏

Yes, I have to remind myself of this, too. I don’t think a servant’s heart comes to us naturally! It must be cultivated. Blessings, Alan!
