As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.
1 Peter 4:10
Years ago, Lynn was in a car accident that broke her neck and made her a quadriplegic. Like me, she depends on friends to help with her disability-routines. A couple of women from her church, as well as a few others from a local college arrive various mornings to get Lynn ready for the day. My friend keeps a planner open on her dresser where her helpers write down the days they assist. One morning, Lynn’s husband glanced at one girl’s scribblings: “Serve Lynn.” She didn’t write “Work for Lynn” or “Here’s my timecard,” but only one sweet word, “Serve.” Tears welled as he thought about the precious motive behind that word. You can be a blessing, too, just as these dear helpers were to Lynn and her husband. Discover wonderful ways you can serve with a glad motive at on our website.
