Kingdom Joy: Living Abundantly in God's Presence

Serving others is not glamorous and often thankless, but it is what Jesus asks us to do in imitation of Him. And as we serve others we discover that we are serving Christ. Our humblest tasks for others become an act of worship.

Money can be a good servant but a terrible master. So many people suffer from fear and anxiety about money, but God calls us to serve Him not money. He promises that when we put Him first He will provide us with all that we need. Part of putting Him first is to be generous in giving.
