DAY 34 – THINKING LIKE A SERVANT
Saturday, October 30, 2004
Service starts in your mind!
“Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.” Philippians 2:5-7 (NIV)
Real servants serve God with a mindset of five attitudes:
- Servants think more about others than about themselves.
- Servants think like stewards, not owners.
- Servants think about their work, not what others are doing.
- Servants base their identity in Christ.
- And servants think of ministry as an opportunity, not an obligation.
Henri Nouwen said, “In order to be of service to others, we have to die to them; that is, we have to give up measuring our meaning and value with the yardstick of others … thus we become free to be compassionate.”
When you base your worth and identity on your relationship to Christ, you are freed from the expectations of others, and that allows you to really serve them best.
Imagine what could happen if just 10 percent of all Christians in the world got serious about their role as real servants. Imagine all the good that could be done. Are you willing to be one of those people?
As I was waiting to pick up my mom from the hospital, it began to rain. It was certainly refreshing to see. As we were driving home, there was a lot of water gathering along the road & I noticed how it was running downhill. As I watched it, I realized that our River can run downhill, too. Or if we are level ground, it will just sit there. If it just sits there, it will become stagnate. I Pray that our River will always run downhill, picking up everything that is in its path. Pray for a gulley washer this Sunday & that Pastor Rob will be filled to overflowing. Get close enough where it can splash out on you!
