Read it: Galatians 5:13, Romans 12
Live it:
The enemy has this clever way of making us think that this world is full of people trying to take from us and that we must preserve our own well-being. Take what you can and/or step on whomever you need to on the way because you are protecting yourself and your family are just two of the lies we are told.
Our text today, Romans 12, tells us to watch out for this trick of the enemy and how to counter it.
Love each other
Honor each other
Serve each other
Something holy happens when we put others first over ourselves. And just imagine what the world will look like when we can all practice this.
Serving others is a practice, a discipline that is essential to our own growth.
Consider trying to serve others today just a little bit more than you did yesterday. Maybe try
Listening: Giving someone your full, patient attention without needing to speak.
Small Acts: Doing hidden tasks that nobody notices or praises.
Sharing: Offering your resources and time freely to those in need.
Ps. Jenni
