Life as a Servant

When we look back at our life what will we have done? Will you have seen your impact on the world? Will you see the impression of your footprints throughout this journey? I sit here tonight and want to know if I have a place for my service. God called me out of the miry pit yet I sit here and look around thinking I have nothing. I have a Savior who loves me that has given me a blessed life. It has been said that, "when the window of heaven opens to bless you, the door to hell opens to blast you." I want to fireproof my heart not for the final battle but for the constant maelstorm I suffer daily from the evils of this world. Lord, I know that you are not a god of false promises and empty hopes. You are the Beginning and End- you have the plan and I need not try my version. You have perfected all life and given me a place to grow. Thank you for the balance and the safety of Your arms. I pray that I am always the Bride of Christ. Forgive me for my human frailities. I serve the One who saves.
