Building the Church Through Service
The church is a place for service, not criticism. Criticism can fracture unity and tarnish our witness, while service builds up the body of Christ. By choosing to serve, believers align themselves with Jesus' heart for the church, fostering a community that reflects His love and grace to the world. Service is an opportunity to contribute to the church's growth and improvement, creating an environment where God's love is evident to all.
1 Peter 4:10 (KJV): "As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God."
Reflection: What is one way you can serve your church community this week, using the gifts God has given you?
