Day 13 — “Serving Others with Intention”

¹³ For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. ¹⁴ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” (Galatians 5:13–14, ESV)

Paul tells us here is Galatians that God fulfilled the law to free believers from under it and allow them to ‘love thy neighbor’. We’re to service one another, and love one another, in the name of God—in His image.

Now, that’s not telling us to worship each other and forget about God. But we’re free’d from under the law of the Old Testament, and in the New Covenant we need to use that extra time helping one another and spreading the good works of Christ.

Each day, remember that we’re to be living Christianly, and walking in accordance to Christ. We need to love our neighbors, enemies, and every one of Gods children.

Today’s Focus:

• Finding one small, intentional way to meet help someone that’s not a friend or family member

Prayer 🙏

Dear God, thank you for dying for our sins and fulfilling the law so that we may be free to spend extra time growing relationships and helping others. Thank you giving us the Words and teachings that bring us together and give us power and guidance to help others. I ask that you give us strength and courage to help as many people on this planet that we possibly can. Allow each of us to spread your light amongst the darkest corners of the world and send love and your Grace to brighten their lives. Amen.
