Blessing in being of service

I was on my walk this morning and a woman pulled over and asked "sis you ok?" I smiled and told her I was just getting my steps in and thank you for checking on me. We laughed and I told her to have a great day. As I walked and thought about it. It was 8 something in the morning the road I turn down to come back runs out of sidewalk halfway down. All she seen was a woman walking in the street early and she checked on me.

I was grateful even though nothing was wrong because if there was, she would have been the difference in my day. I thought about would I have stopped. This week has really been pushing me being of service. God reminded me that is who I have always been. Every job I ever had was of service. I get joy with helping and working in service of people. I am a helper. It will always be a part of who I am.

God showed me it takes someone being of service to be a true leader. When all else fails can you step in and serve people with a humble heart. Not only provide financially, but feed people and clean them up. A true leader understands God has blessed them to be in that position, but they are no better than anyone else.

Look at your life and see what your mindset is when you have to serve. Are you humble and happy to help or are you bothered and frustrated? Look at being of service as a blessing not only to who you are serving but to you as well.
