Main Scripture: Ephesians 6:7 (KJV)
“With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:”
When we serve with gratitude, it helps us to center our hearts on God’s goodness and the privilege of serving others. The Bible encourages us to approach our service with a spirit of goodwill, as unto the Lord and not to men.
When we have this mindset of serving as unto the Lord, it gives us a sense of gratitude because we recognize the value of our service in the bigger picture of God’s Kingdom. We shouldn’t serve others with an attitude of expecting something in return or wanting to be seen. We are serving in the spirit of thanks unto the Lord! So, when you are working at your job in the service industry, do it as unto the Lord. When you are helping someone along the way, do it as unto the Lord.
We are servants of the Most High God, and we should be grateful when we are serving one another.
