Chapter four- Servant


A servant in this context, can be described as one who serves, does services-voluntarily or on compulsion; a person who is employed by another for menial offices, or for other labor, and is subject to his command; a person who labors or exerts himself for the benefit of another, his master or employer; a subordinated helper.

A servant depends on his master and always does what the master tells him/her to do. Thinking back on the day I converted to Jesus, the day I decided in my heart to serve God. I asked Him (God) to make me a servant, I remember saying to him "my Lord, a servant I choose to be, when I am weak Lord strengthen me; my eyes will never look behind, I cling to you for you are my master".

A servant is willing to go an extra mile to do what he was told and more than that, a servant is alert, punctual, dedicated and observant. A servant is not easily angered and considers people's interest more important that their own. He does not look down on others; he has passion/compassion for others. To be a servant comes from within, its an individual choice. A servant is fully committed to his master. Let us be servants of God.

The strength of the youth comes from within!!!!!
