This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. (John 5:8)
Over the last two days we have looked at two concepts aimed at ensuring that we focus on glorifying God when we serve others. Today, we consider the third and final concept: Sharing God’s Glory.
Sharing God’s Glory
The transformative power of the glory of God compels us to share with others, and we should not be lazy or casual about this responsibility. Through service, we can attend to the physical needs of those around us, but we should not forget spiritual needs. We practically share God’s glory with others by sharing Jesus. While we should always attend to “natural” needs, let’s remember that ultimately what people need is God.
Question:
Are you comfortable with the idea of sharing Jesus with others through service?
