Did you know that your spiritual growth is linked to your service? That’s right. You get something out of filling that volunteer position in the nursery or children’s ministry. You’re not just doing a job, filling a slot—you’re growing. God uses that service to teach you something about Him and others. And even if you don’t feel like you’re the best person for the job, or if you wonder, “Why am I doing this?” God says that if you want to grow, you have to serve.
Parents, consider these questions and discuss them with your kids this week: Have you ever had a great experience while serving another person? What was so great about it? What are some characteristics you see in each other that would be assets in serving?
It may be out of left field. It may not be the way you've ever thought. Consider it.

“He who fears the LORD has a secure fortress, and for his children it will be a refuge.” Proverbs 14:26b
