Saturday Writing by Carol Steficek.....11/19/16

Good Morning,

Carol Steficek is the author of the writing for today..."SERVANTS." Her theme is that leaders lead by their example. This includes generals, politicians, teachers and many more who are good leaders. Carol lists "King Jesus" as the best leader of all. She wrote, "Remember, whatever you do at work, home, school, or at church -- you are part of a team.  You are a servant of the King of Kings and thus a servant of others."

Have a sweet Saturday, and please remember to pray for our country.
God bless,
Corinne & Carol

Today's Devotional
SERVANTS


"...the greatest among you 
should be like the youngest, 
and the one who rules 
like the one who serves." 
Luke 2:26b

   Most of us have heard war stories of great generals who were right there in the trenches with their men.  They led by example and actions.  These were true leaders and heroes.

     The best bosses I have ever worked for were those who would get out and help us when needed.  They didn't sit back in their offices and simply give orders.  They worked with us as a team.

     This was also true of the greatest of all the kings, King Jesus.  The God of the universe emptied Himself to take on the form of a man and put aside His power and rightful reign.  He really got down in the trenches with mankind.

     Not only that.  While living on earth Hew was a servant of all.  His example to His disciples and followers was always to put other first.  He did good to everyone.  He healed.  He forgave sins.  He was always merciful and compassionate.  He loved and received nothing in return.

     Jesus gave us the example of how we are to live the life of servants just as He did.  We are to love our neighbors as ourselves, give unlimited forgiveness to those who sin against us, put others before ourselves -- in short, we are to be servants.

     Remember, whatever you do at work, home, school, or at church -- you are part of a team.  You are a servant of the King of Kings and thus a servant of others.
