Hello sisters!
In God's mercy and grace I am back to edify in Him. Hopefully my sisters are still pressing on in the faith and all good works possible!
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.Galatians 6:10
This scripture reminds me how we do good as we have opportunity. We all have different ones and different lives too so the Lord knows if we are doing our best. He sees us everywhere of course including when others don't. He is whom we please and live unto. But we do please people too in the work we do for them etc. No we don't please them by doing everything they want us to and such because that may go against God and our faith and conscience but in all good things we can do our work well.
Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:
Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
Ephesians 6:5-8
The many teachings written to servants can help us see how God wants us to work for others.
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
Matthew 23:10-12
But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.
But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;.
And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Matthew 20:25-28
It's always good to bring these things into our remembrance and it is encouraging to know that is what God wants. Jesus as usual is such a perfect example. He did so much for us...although He thought it not robbery to be equal with God. He lowered Himself so much to become a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death. He is so good.
Let us keep following hard after our glorious Saviour! We are here on earth still and shall have much tribulation but may we be of good cheer as He has overcome the world! He is risen and given us this hope too! Press on sisters.
Love, mercy, and peace to you.
