  1. Matthew 6:9-10 This, then, is how you should pray: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. “

  2. CHOOSING TO SERVE AND BEING A SERVANT “There is an important distinction between choosing to serve and being a servant. When we choose to serve, we view service as an occasional option. We stay firmly in control. We decide whom, when, and under what conditions we will serve.

  3. CHOOSING TO SERVE AND BEING A SERVANT Sometimes we are drawn to big acts to increase our sense of significance, and sometimes to lowly acts to guarantee a humble image. In any case, if our efforts are not adequately rewarded, we soon withdraw them altogether. Ironically, this so-called servant-hood often fractures the very community it’s intended to serve.”

  4. CHOOSING TO SERVE AND BEING A SERVANT “Conversely, being a servant involves the opening of ourselves to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. We relax our grip on our need to stay in firm control. Big acts of service and small are embraced with equal joy. And while affirmation received from others may be genuinely appreciate, we are content serving an audience of One.” John Ortberg
