Day 34 Thinking Like a Servant

"True humility is not thinking less of ourselves, but thinking of ourselves less." What a humbling chapter this was. "When we stop focusing on our own needs, we become aware of the needs around us." We serve the Lord because we love the Lord, we're grateful for his grace, we know serving is the highest use of life, and we know God has promised a reward - period, end of story. If we are serving for ANY OTHER reason, we have lost our servant's heart.

Lord, I pray that you give me a servant's heart - that I serve humbly and with my focus on You and the needs of others. Amen
