Power of Service

Lately I've been out and about providing service to a variety of of people. From the poor to the needy(there is a distinction) I've been going around forgetting myself and becoming a tool of passing around those warm fuzzies people become engulfed in when another human shows them the goodness of humanity. And you want to know what I've realized? Bitter are those who worry only about themselves, angry when things do not benefit them. Sad are those who lead service, in concern that they are doing enough, and joyful when gratitude and humility is expressed. Leadership and power comes not then from personal glory or gain, but from a godly concern for the well being of fellow men. Leaders do not come upon to implement their own ideas to a people, but service them to help them strive towards eternal truths.
