The Inner Thoughts

And let's be real—when things go the opposite direction, it's not just about external challenges; it's also about the mistakes we make, the flaws in our own hearts and our human sinful nature. This can make the journey of life and our mission to serve God in the world pretty tiring. But instead of getting hung up on aiming for success, our focus should be on staying true and faithful to God through obedience. What keeps us going is the big-picture idea that ultimately, it's God Himself who's going to establish a world ruled by His kingdom of love, righteousness, peace, fulfilment and satisfaction. 

It’s hard to be a servant when you were a leader. And it’s difficult to model servant-leadership when you’re already a servant.  But how to be a servant? It is to strive to be not to be the leader. After all, nothing is bad for not being a leader but rather aim to be "a good and faithful servant." In the end, you will no longer struggle on how to be humble but to desire more of God’s promise to be happy as Jesus said, “Happy are those who are humble; they will receive what God has promised.” ( Good News Translation) -ggcc April 26, 2019
