Serving Sets Your Free

We remain free through serving others…

This is an odd concept, yet for those of us who have experienced serving someone or something out of the kindness of our hearts with no expectation of return, get it.

Think about it for a moment.

Every day we naturally help, assist, or give a hand to someone or something.

From parents caring for their children’s needs to yielding the right of way to another while we walk or drive, we are instinctually serving.

It’s part of our nature.

The Spiritual principle supporting this is the fact that through serving others, we are humbling ourselves to put others needs before our wants.

The feeling you get is immeasurable when you do something for someone who can never pay you back.

Helping others, does in fact, help ourselves…

Check your experience…

“Helping others is the foundation stone” Big Book pg. 97

Lord, let us exercise and grow our freedom through helping others, AMEN.

“For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.” Galatians 5:13

Have a blessed day Y'all!

Leading By Example

Leading by example...

It seems to be an American cultural norm that we all must "make it to the top" of whatever work or career path we are on.

The media and marketing that we are exposed to on all fronts seems to equate success with clothes, cars, and other material trappings far above what most of us can honestly afford.

“More is Better!” seems to be the subliminal message of success.

The truth is that more is not better.

While we need to support ourselves and our families, true success comes from becoming great stewards of what we are given and how we support and serve those around us.

Jesus came to serve, not be served.

He came to show us that there is eternal life through Him.

Our faith in God grows when we learn the truth in His word and become in tune to those people, places, things, and situations He puts in our lives...

Check your experience...

"How can I best serve Thee? Thy will (not mine) be done." Big Book pg. 85

Lord, let us lead by serving and let us measure our success through our stewardship of the blessings you give us, AMEN.

"But the greatest among you shall be your servant. Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted." Matthew 23: 11-12

F.R.O.G.

Learning to rely…..

We learn from an early age to rely on others.

As children we rely on adults to keep us healthy, safe, and to help us grow.

As adults we learn that self- reliance only takes us so far and we need to rely on people, places, and things to get through our daily journey.

This is a good plan but we are only as good as what it is we rely upon.

Think about it.

People are human after all and prone to failures and mistakes.

Places can change due to the people in them or economic circumstances.

Things like electronics get outdated and even obsolete.

So the question is what can we rely upon that never changes and always is in step with our lives?

Maybe it’s different for you, but the answer for me and my house has been, is, and will forever be to rely on our relationship with God through Jesus and the Holy Spirit…

F.R.O.G. - Fully Rely On God!..

Check your experience…

“When we saw others solve their problems by a simple reliance upon the Spirit of the Universe, we had to stop doubting the power of God.” Big Book pg. 52

Lord, let us learn to rely on You and trust Your presences and guidance in our lives, AMEN.

“…we stopped relying on ourselves and learned to rely only on God,” 2 Corinthians 1:9

Have a blessed day y’all!
