What Could You Do?
Romans 12:3-8
“For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the samefunction, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.”
What could you do with your time?
What do you think you could do with your time to serve others? Service doesn’t always mean giving money and gifts; there is also a strong need for men and women to be the hands and feet of the church.
What could you do with your money beyond tithing?
Service doesn’t always take time. A little can go a long way, a lot can go even further. Where we put not only our time, but also our money, is where our hearts are. What other places do you want your heart to be?
What could you do with your donations?
- Help someone in need.
- Help make a project happen.
- Help provide what it takes to reach the community.
- Help cut the costs of a ministry.
- Help the hands of the church to reach further.
When it comes down to it, sometimes the things we have on our own property, or the people we know in life, can help the most. What resource has God put in your hands to do His work with? How can a box of paper, a bag of coffee, or even a paint brush help to do God’s work? Let’s find out.
