When the worship is over the service begins!
What is worship and what is service?...
_
Is it only the songs we sing or is it also the how we lives our lives? As in...our lives being lived in such a way that it is an act of worship?
_
Are worship and service only to relegated to once a week as we join together? Is service just what we do on Sundays? Or is it that and more?
_
Each week we come together to worship The Lord in song, be instructed, encouraged and challenged in The Word and to fellowship and serve one another which is a vital and biblical time.
_
Once we leave the church meeting places we can either sort of "check the box" as we worshiped or we can leave and actively be the hands and feet of Jesus beyond our weekend church activities.
_
Don't get me wrong, again, it's vital and scriptural that we join together and not forsake it but our worship and service unto The Lord and others cannot be contained in a 1-2 hour service once a week.
_
In reality our service unto The Lord is moment-by-moment and The Body of Christ should all the more become The Body of Christ once we leave the church meeting places.
_
We become the hands and feet of Jesus more and more as we go into the world to serve our neighbors and one another with the love of Christ and helping meet their physical and spiritual needs.
_
We also serve one another in The Body of Christ through small groups, bearing one another's burdens, caring for widows and orphans, feeding and care for one another making sure we take care of one another, especially those in need.
_
May we begin our service all the more as we leave our meeting places because...when the worship is over the service begins.
_
See Luke 10:2, Matthew 9:35-38, John 4:24, Acts 2:42-47, Ephesians 5:18-21 and Romans 12 for encouragement from God's Word on serving...being the hands and feet of Jesus. There are many more scriptures that teach us about this so keep studying and exploring God's Word.
