Service is an Attitude of the Heart

Nancie    Norton
I want to tell you, in case you don't know
God showed me this,not too long ago

Service is an attitude, of the heart
He gave us all talents, so we could do our part

Serving God in all, that we say and do
But he wants us to serve, our fellow man too!

You know there are always people, who have needs
Some we can help, through our actions and deeds

Others might be helped , by just a kind word
This may be something, they've never heard

And then, there are those, who just need your pressence
Just having you there, can make bad times more pleasant

Give of yourself, it's your greatest gift
Anytime you help another, It gives your heart a lift

With God's words, you can feed one's broken soul
Showing them truths that will make their life whole

Maybe through your service someone will take that step
Toward giving God their life, and asking for his help.

    From one Sanguine to another, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT!!!!! Yes, we're admonished to have the same spirit that Jesus had: a servant SPIRIT. Imagine God, Himself, getting on the ground to wash His disciples' filthy feet! Oh, my, it thrills my heart!
