"No servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him." - John 13:16, NIV
Jesus is our risen Lord and reigning King! You and I are to serve Him by getting involved in meeting the needs of others simply because He says so! He is Lord! And while we should never forget Who He is, we should also never forget who we are!
You and I are . . .
sinners saved, (Romans 3:23-24)
blood bought, (1 Peter 1:18-19)
prisoners freed, (Luke 4:18)
glory bound. (Colossians 3:4)
We are not our own. We belong to Him. (John 15:19 NKJV)
Our lives no longer are to be lived according to what we want but according to what He says. We are His faithful servants. If you know your place, have you accepted it?
