Serving Others Through Love

Written By Lettie Henley

“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love." - Galatians 5:13

Freedom in Christ is a precious gift, one that sets us free from sin, guilt, and condemnation. However, this freedom isn’t a license to do anything we please. Instead, it’s an invitation to live in a way that reflects God's love and grace. The Apostle Paul reminds us that true freedom is expressed through service, serving one another humbly and selflessly.

When we choose to serve others in love, we honor the freedom Christ has given us and demonstrate His love to those around us. Serving isn’t about obligation; it’s about a heart humbled by grace, eager to bless others and reflect Christ’s character.

Reflection:

- Today, look for practical ways to serve someone in your life. It could be a kind word, a helping hand, or a listening ear.

- Remember that true service is done in humility and love.

- Let your freedom in Christ lead you to bless others, not to indulge the flesh or satisfy selfish desires.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for setting me free through Your love and sacrifice. Help me to use my freedom not for selfish gain, but to serve others humbly. Teach me to love as You loved, with kindness, patience, and humility. Fill my heart with a servant’s attitude, so that I may reflect Your love to everyone I encounter today. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
