sat's sermon, Nehemiah 5:14-19
Purpose before privilege,
Others before self,
And seek God's affirmation.
Somehow, I've just suddenly realise that, I think for everyone of us, we're given a certain amount of privileges, abilities, resources, etc. Some more than others, but I feel that the more one get, the harder it is to step away from our original calling, which is to serve God. And these 3 points are so interlinked, I don't know why I have never thought of it before.
With our gifts, that comes with certain benefits, we can enjoy the benefits as a bonus, but ultimately, a bonus is something that can be done without. And this is the attitude which we should have to serve others and remember what is our purpose in being given these gifts. These gifts is then put to use, to put others before ourselves, such that in the end, when we see God, He'll praise us for all we've done to serve others and be like Him.
Should each of us always think of others before ourselves, we'll then naturally have all our needs met. Mutual support, mutual growth, and grow we will!
