The way you are
-
YOU ARE AWARE OF JESUS WHEN YOU ARE HELPING OTHERS
-
FOR YOU, SERVING IS ALL ABOUT WORSHIP
-
YOU WONDER WHY PEOPLE WANT TO SPEND SO MUCH TIME SINGING WHEN THEY COULD BE SERVING PEOPLE
-
YOU SEE SERVICE AS PROPHETIC ACTION
-
YOU FIND REAL JOY IN SERVING
-
SEEING PEOPLE IN NEED STIRS UP A DESIRE TO SEE HEALING GIFTS
-
LET YOUR KINGDOM COME ON EARTH IS A PRAYER WITH REAL MEANING FOR YOU
Hearing from God
With difficulty – you are happy to be told what the issues are and get on with implementing them
Biblical Example
Dorcas in the Book of Acts
Other Example
MOTHER THERESA
Build

Look for glimpses of God’s presence in the people you serve, and in the execution of your tasks.

Prepare to serve first by praying so your service is genuinely spiritual service.
Beware

Be careful not to resent other people who don’t serve as much as you do.

Remember that God loves you not because you are so faithful in serving him, but

Because you are his CHILD.

Don’t confuse serving with earning God’s love.
Balance

Balance your service with small group and community life.
