Family Acts of Service (Video)

Jesus modelled a life of service and invites us to follow him in this. How are we modelling a life of service to the next generations?  Do we invite them to join in with us in serving others – and talk about it afterwards?

Serving is faith and love in action. If we are not serving, what does that suggest?

Now we do not serve others to earn God’s favour.

Rather, God’s favour produces a life of good works.

God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God…  For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT).

Safe and secure in Jesus, we don’t have to keep grasping after greatness in the eyes of the world. Instead, we are free from self-promotion to get on with the good things God planned for us.

We don’t sit around just waiting for God to take us home to heaven; but actively participate in God’s restoration plans for his world.  We are saved to serve.
