Serving God: A Bruden or a Blessing?

Do you consider it a burden or a blessing? During my devotion time over the past few days I have been humbled about the thought of how grateful we should be to be honored to serve God. Here in this world we would consider it a privilege to be able to work and serve someone with such authority, love, power and greatness. Do we feel the same about the one true King? I think about this as we are going to be continuing what has hopefully been our own personal worship with God by gathering together with other believers this evening. Some will be preaching, others will be leading singing, running sound and lyric slides, setting up tables, preparing food, transporting people to the building we meet at, putting out signs, getting ready for children's church, greeting people, caring for the kids in nursery.... the list goes on. Why do you serve? I will leave that between you and God.

But if we do not realize to the full extent how much we should be grateful and honored that our Father in heaven allows us to serve him and be included in his plan.. until we really get this we do not receive the entire blessing. No matter what you do serving God, with your church or in daily life, we should feel it a great honor to be allowed to serve and do it with joy and passion for the One we are doing it for. So as you serve today remember, serving is a blessing, not a burden. We all need to remember this sometimes. Have a blessed Sunday! Glory to the Father in the highest! ~Kriss #PrayerDevotion #ServingGod
