Serving Jesus

Dear brothers and sisters,

To be humble, caring and loving first we have to serve Jesus always for He is our provider our master and savior so we have to serve Him as servants but eventually even though God has blessed us so much we do not serve and we become proud thinking we are higher than God and this can lead us to great sin and trouble.

 

We have to become obedient children and not rebellious and stubborn children. For we serve Jesus only, Jesus has told us in the bible that we cannot serve two master that is God and wealth. We find difficult to serve God because we have to use our freewill carefully and ask  God and take the proper decision so that we may serve God faithfully.

Jesus says in the bible that “what does profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul”.

Therefore brothers and sisters we have to be alert always because devil waits for our weakest moments to strike us so that we may fall trap to sin which will take us away from God.

 

When we fall trap to sin instead of rising up we give up and lose the battle because of our foolishness. For we cannot serve the world and God we have to either give up one and serve one. God giving us a chance to change and we should try our level best to change and serve God only and not the world and its desire.

For God never punishes but rather always blesses us but we repay God so badly by being rebellious and also unfaithful to Him. Most of us take advantage of Gods goodness, blessing and gift.

God gives us everything we ask but we do not give what God asks that is to love for him. So therefore let us ask God to forgive our sins and also we should ask God to help us in trouble. For life is a test anytime anything can fail and because of that we may fall into problems or trials or sickness or sufferings. If we obey God and accept it then surely we will be serving Him with Love.

We as humans has a bad attitude that is when the bad situation turns in good situations we always turn away from God go back to our old sinful life. We have to be alert and ask Gods help to change our lives so that we may always remain till the end with God through His Mercy and Grace. Amen.
