Just claiming a few priorities…

We can serve others well when we actively decide to take on the role of a servant.

This seems obvious, but missing this step can lead to doing more harm than good.

“Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.”
– Matthew 10:39
