Saved To Serve Michael U Landsman

Many have asked the question, 'What is my purpose?' The Scripture plainly lets us know that we have been saved for a purpose. That purpose is to serve God. Ephesians 2:10 shows this clearly. It is not just enough to know your purpose but you must make sure your attitude is right. Isaiah tells us that if we are WILLING and obedient, we will eat the good of the land. Willingness speaks to your attitude. Your attitude is a vital aspect of your Christian life. It will determine your success or failure. It will make you or break you. Jesus gave us the example to follow. He said that he came not to be served, but to serve and give. This speaks to attitude. The attitude that we should have is one of a Servant. The servant does not gain his identity from his service, but from his relationship to the master. The key to greatness is seen by your service. If I am a servant of God then my function is not what defines me. In fact, knowing that I am His frees me to serve in any capacity that the Master determines he needs. It is my prayer that you develop the Attitude of a Servant and fulfill you God mandated function...to serve. Dr. Michael Landsman
