A devotional reflection on serving others with God-given gifts.
Topical
Service is using God-given gifts for His glory. Scripture teaches that every believer is gifted to serve the body of Christ. Service reflects Christ’s humility and advances His kingdom.
By love serve one another. (Galatians 5:13)
As every man hath received the gift… minister the same. (1 Peter 4:10)
I will very gladly spend and be spent. (2 Corinthians 12:15)
Christian Application
Service encourages believers that God uses their efforts, however small, for eternal good. Serve others joyfully, use your gifts, and honor Christ.
Sample Prayer
Lord, help me serve with humility and use my gifts for Your glory. Amen.
