Is it just me or is September an awesome month?! Not too cold (for those that live in the north) but not too hot (for those that live in the South), not to mention that there are birthday's galore! I think the autumn leaves are stunning too, since I live in a desert now my desktop background serves that purpose and does a dang good job! Well this post is going to be a record breaking quicky but maybe that's for the better of everyone.
Minnesota Autumn-ness
I often find myself frustrated and angry over a way I was treated or not treated. I will pour my heart out into the well being of others to help them and get nothing in return. I wonder if what I am doing by helping people is right or even beneficial to them at all? This morning it struck me we were not made to be served but to serve others. I am not made to be treated any certain way, rather that is a byproduct of how we live and treat others. We are served every single day by a God who does a whole lot more than help a friend out every now and then. Yea that lady just cut me off and that sales rep was a complete jerk but suck it up and MOVE ALONG. To truly serve is to live to give expecting nothing tangible in return. Having a servants heart produces blessings and joy far greater than any self-served act.
On a health front, Vitamins are amazing! A few weeks ago I stopped taking this bad-boy briefly because I ran out:
OH MY GOSH! They have made me feel so much better and made my skin
glowing again!
Caution: They do make you FIERCE.
26 But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave. 28 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
-Matthew 20:26-28 (New Living Translation)
