To those engaged in spiritual work, there is a certain reward that comes in the feeling of having served their fellow man and of having served God in such services. However, when we come to giving service within our family, business, or even community life, we are likely to forget that the service we perform for another is not really for another at all. Outwardly it would seem that we are performing our duties and obligations merely because of those human obligations and relationships, but this is not true. In serving another, we are serving Christ.
