It will cost you!

John 13: 16 – 17
I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
How has God been speaking to you, about the ways He wishes you to serve Him?
If you’re drawing a blank to that question, it might be a good idea to open your heart and your mind and your ears, to what He’s telling you.
Our great God is the Master of all, and He deserves to be praised and He deserves to be served.
What other Master do you know, who would lay down his own life for the servants?
And yet we know that Jesus did that for us.
When we serve His needs, we are filled with His image.
When we serve His needs instead of our own, we become more of whom He created us to be.
Being a lifetime servant, for the cause of Christ, is the most important lesson a Christian could ever learn.
As hard as this fact is to accept, most don’t accept the call of following Jesus.
So many listen to what God says about service, but the sad reality is that very few do, what He says we should do.
How is that going to change for you today. Will it change for you today?
Has God been talking to you, about the ways He wants you to serve?
Have you been ignoring that still small voice?

Either way, there is a great cost of serving God—and there is also a great cost, for not being motivated to serve
