December 22 - "A Heart of Service"
Scripture: "Whosoever will be great among you, let him be
your minister; and whosoever will be chiefest, let him be your servant." —
Matthew 20:26-27 (KJV)
Jesus taught that true greatness in His kingdom is measured by how we
serve others. We are called to follow His example of humility and sacrificial
love, putting the needs of others before our own. A heart of service is one
that reflects the heart of Christ, who came not to be served but to serve.
This Advent season, let us embrace a heart of service, seeking out
opportunities to bless others and show the love of Christ through our actions.
Prayer:
Lord, give us a heart of service, just as You served us. Help us to put others
before ourselves and to serve with humility and love. May our lives reflect
Your selfless love. In Jesus' name, Amen.
