One of the most important aspects of a fruitful life is not only learning to serve others, but learning to lay hold of what God desires to be for us as we serve. The reason this is important is that we need His wisdom to guide our expressions of love if our love is to really help people and not harm them. We all know parents who have actually hurt their children, even when trying to help them. Life is service, but it is also a partnership with God if it is to be beneficial service. The best thing we can do for those we love is to seek God’s wisdom serving them.
