Serve each other!
“Whoever serves is to do so as one show is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ”.1 Peter 4:11.
It’s not easy asking for help!
Yet as we age…
– and simple tasks become more difficult…
– it becomes increasingly important for you to ask for help from others.
For some-
The humbling experience of requesting assistance is too much.
You may even know people who forego things they enjoy or need to do because they’d rather not appear weak!
However-
Consider this:
When you allow someone to serve you, it brings glory to God.
It is a blessing to serve each other!
And if you don’t let others serve you-
– you really are depriving them of that blessing!
Also-
God loves to see us serve each other.
Romans 14:17-18 teaches us to serve with “righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.”
As important as it is for you to serve others-
– it is also important to allow others to serve you!
This is how the Church was designed to function!
If you are in need of help today-
Pray for God to give you the courage to ask someone for assistance…
– so that they may be blessed by God!
– and that He may be glorified!!
