Elemental - Serve

When you serve like Jesus, Jesus is who people see.

  • How did you learn to serve others? Was it taught or caught? Who was instrumental in you learning to serve?

Read: Galatians 6:2-3

  • Why is humility so important to being able to serve like Jesus?

  • How does the kind of service described in this text differ from the selfie-service that is so prevalent in our culture?

Read: Galatians 6:4-6

  • What does this text say about your work?

  • What is the relationship between humility and responsibility in your service?

Read: Galatians 6:7-8

  • Sin and selfishness go together. Service and selflessness go together. If you reap what you sow, as Paul wrote in this verse, how can you be sure you’re planting the right kind of seeds?

Read: Galatians 6:9-10

  • A lot has been written about “compassion fatigue.” You can become weary in doing good. How can you avoid burning out like that?

  • How can you look for opportunities to do good to everyone, especially to those in your faith family?

Prayer: Pray Galatians 6:9. Ask God to strengthen and encourage you so you won’t give up.
