The Role of Servant in Ministry

Posted by Jim Altizer on April 28, 2015 in Ministry | Views



Servants Don’t

Servants don’t select the field in which they will work
They work wherever the Master sends them
That’s why He is called “Master”

Servants don’t decide how much they should get paid
The Master provides exactly what He wants them to have
When He wants them to have it

Servants don’t worry about housing
Servant’s quarters are guaranteed
And are never beneath them

Servants don’t maneuver their way to prominence
Status is determined by Who your Master is
Not the field to which you are assigned

Servants don’t compare themselves to other Servants
They work to please the Master
Not others (besides, they’re just servants!)

Servants don’t obsess about their future
That is the Master’s responsibility
An inheritance is assured
