Son, one of the defining qualities of my sons and daughters must be their willingness to serve others. If there is one overriding quality modeled by my Son, it is His servant’s heart. By studying His life you are able to get a glimpse of my nature. He is a mirror of me in human form. Son, when you serve others you actually begin a healing process in your own life. It is one of the mysteries of my kingdom. Ultimately, I want all my sons and daughters to realize that life is about me and my kingdom. When you become self-focused, you begin to get depressed and you internalize your problems. But when you begin to serve others, you step out into a broader perspective. Embrace this mystery and you will see your joy returning. Remember, the joy of the Lord is your strength. It is not YOUR joy that gives you strength, it is MY joy (Neh 8:10).
...just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many—Matthew 20:28.
Let a man so consider us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God—1 Corinthians 4:1.
