Matthew 23:11–12 (NLT) — 11 The greatest among you must be a servant. 12 But those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.

Everyone can be great – Because everyone can SERVE! – Serving isn’t just about serving at Church

Paul compared CHURCH to BODY – Body of Christ – Every part is important – If you know Jesus you have a purpose!

Church – If aren’t engaged – Involved – Loving – serving – THEN SOMETHING GOD WANTS DONE ISN’T BEING DONE – Need not being met – Life not being changed – Someone not in heaven

This your one? Gifts in the church – Want to be important? SERVE

EVERYONE CAN BE GREAT BECAUSE EVERYONE CAN SERVE

STOP TRYING AND START TRAINING

1 Corinthians 9:24–27 (NLT) — 24 Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! 25 All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. 26 So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. 27 I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should…

When you are an athlete – fighting something that matters! – Trying apart from training… Unthinkable

1 Timothy 4:7 (NLT) — 7 Do not waste time arguing over godless ideas and old wives’ tales. Instead, train yourself to be godly.

Excuses – Stop trying… start training! – Get closer to God

His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
