Service is integral to our faith. It is an expression of the good news we have ourselves received.

But as with all good things, there can be a unhealthy flip side. Sometimes serving others can unwittingly feed our ego. It places us in the role of “the one with the goods” and the recipient of our service is somehow impoverished.

How willing are you to be on the receiving end of service? Today, every time someone offers to do something for you, accept their offer graciously.
