Being an upright, virtuous & trustworthy servant of God is being faithful in the small things…the things no one else sees but you…the things that show your true character. It’s riding that roller coaster ride of emotions, suffering, and loss without losing your true bearings of God’s plan & purpose for your life. It’s never easy, never glamorous, never enjoyable…but it is God’s divine and sovereign Will… and so we need to remain loyal and focused no matter how tough it gets. Lord, help me keep my sorrow from collapsing into self-pity, for that benefits no one. Help keep my aching & weary heart soft, malleable, and patient as I serve others for You. Finally Lord, constantly remind me that in all I do… every bit of it… is to be done to glorify You…exhibiting Your love in every action, word, and deed, that I too someday will hear these words…”Well done, good and faithful servant.”
