Day 166
Serve in Community for God

“Serve one another humbly in love.” (Galatians 5:13)

Reflection:
Dorcas, known for her sewing and generosity, serves her community with quiet acts of love (Acts 9:36). Her service is so valued that God raises her from death to continue her work. 1 Peter 4:10 calls us to steward gifts for others, and Matthew 20:28 says Jesus came to serve.

Serving together builds God’s kingdom. Dorcas didn’t seek attention; her humble acts spoke loudly, touching lives deeply.

Think about a time someone’s service (a meal, a favor, a prayer) blessed you. This month’s focus on community shows that serving others strengthens our pursuit of God. Is there a need in your church or neighborhood you could meet? Your quiet service could open hearts, like Dorcas did. Her work didn’t just help; it sparked a revival. Your service could be a platform for God’s love.

What practical service creates gospel platform?

Today’s Challenge: Perform one unseen service: “I serve as unto Christ.” Dorcas’ ministry sparked resurrection.

Prayer: Father God, just as Dorcas’ sewing positioned resurrection testimony, multiply my humble service, so You will be glorified. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
