Serving others with love and intergrity

Whenever and wherever duty calls you, let it be your desire and calculated effort to serve all with love and integrity. Let whoever makes his or her way to your place, leave with a good feeling of satisfaction. After you leave, people will not only appreciate you but will live to remember your good works.

Just read this story of Tabitha-Dorcas and see what I am talking about:

"In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (in Greek her name is Dorcas); she was always doing good and helping the poor. About that time she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upstairs room.  Lydda was near Joppa; so when the disciples heard that Peter was in Lydda, they sent two men to him and urged him, “Please come at once!”

 Peter went with them, and when he arrived he was taken upstairs to the room. All the widows stood around him, crying and showing him the robes and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.

 Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his knees and prayed. Turning toward the dead woman, he said, “Tabitha, get up.” She opened her eyes, and seeing Peter she sat up. He took her by the hand and helped her to her feet. Then he called for the believers, especially the widows, and presented her to them alive. This became known all over Joppa, and many people believed in the Lord." (Acts 9:36-42)

Even so help me dear Lord to be of great service to your children

Pastor Birai
