Serving

9:08 AM

For the Lord will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people.  Only fear the Lord , and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.
1 Samuel 12:22‭, ‬24 KJV

Our God is for us. He will not do us harm. He created us and so he delighted in us. He reminds us these and how He did small and great things for us. But He asks only for us to fear Him and serve Him with all our hearts.

Serving Him is my purpose. Jesus once said that if we follow Him it will not be easy and it will be full of suffering. But I still choose to serve with all of my heart. It is not only I who needs help, love and blessings. But the people around me as well. Though my body becomes weak at times, adversaries come and go, and temptations are all over my surroundings and even in my head, I will do what is righteous and bring God's miracle to everyone, to whom He had entrusted to me.

I will not stop until I served my purpose on earth because of the fear I have in Him - the fear out of love, the fear of making Him sad, the fear of making Him mad at me. He is my father and I don't want Him to feel these. I am glad and joyful that I live now for the Kingdom of God and not of this world. I aim for eternity and not for temporal. And even though I face all these things, I know I can conquer them all because He is with me. He blesses me and gives me favor even the smallest so how can I not do His will for me?

God bless us all and may everyone find this devotion as inspiration to keep on serving the Lord
