“But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.”
1 Samuel 12:24

When you hear the word servant what do you think? The word has negative conations in this world. Often people think being a servant is someone that is of lower class or economic status.

But is being a servant such a bad thing?

Jesus was a servant, he paid a price for us all and we consider him to be a king. As if a King can be of lower class!

For a long time I’ve struggled with the word “servant” and what that meant for my life. I have come to terms with it in my life; in fact I am ok with it. One of the greatest gifts God has given me is the desire to help: to help my co-workers, to help the lost, to help my family. I love to help!

So go ahead and call me a servant and I will say with a great big smile on my face, Thank you.

Don’t be afraid of the word servant you are modeling yourself after a King.
