I Live To Serve

A few weeks ago, a local cell phone representative was demonstrating the various capabilities of the Apple Iphone5 to me, one of its capabilities is that of the intelligent personal assistance and knowledge navigator known as ’Siri’. Using your own natural language, Siri can answer questions, make recommendations and perform actions.

During the recommendations I asked Siri to remind me to pick up some items at home at a certain time, when the time arrived a few minutes later, there were several beeps that sounded reminding me of the task. When I thanked Siri, she answered and said “I live to serve.”

It’s amazing that a cell phone device can do all of the above. What’s even more amazing (to me), is that whoever programmed the Siri software, was obviously familiar with the biblical principles of service and serving others (Matt.4vs10, john13vs1-17)

As followers of Christ, we have been called to serve one another and to serve our God (1cor7vs21-22).In the house of the lord, there are some members who think that the church should serve them rather than the opposite. Brethren, what is your attitude towards Christian service today? Is our answer the same as siri’s… “I live to serve”? Let’s think about it and if we are not living to serve, let us adjust our attitude accordingly.
