This past Sunday was Day 33 form Purpose Driven Life..."How Real Servants Act"

Here are some points of interest:

Real servants...

  -make themselves available to serve

  -pay attention to needs

  -do their best w/what they have

  -do every task with equal dedication

  -are faithful to their ministry

  -maintain a low profile

Next week's lesson is Day 34 Thinking Like a Servant

www.purposedriven.com/day34

Point to ponder:  To be a servant, I must think like a servant.

Verse to remember:  Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus. Phil. 2:5 (NIV)

Question to consider:  Am I usually more concerned about being served or finding ways to serve others?
