I was reflecting on this scripture as my thoughts kept coming back to the importance of having a “more than enough” vs. a “just enough” mindset.
As leaders, we must always look for opportunities to be “change agents” with adding value to others as the foundation premise for success.
Our impact flows when we focus on being a blessing to or the burden remover for someone else, each day.
Yes, we have our own issues and needs but, our solutions are our seeds of service.
Remember:
⁃ When we feel stuck, we should focus on serving.
⁃ When we are not sure what to do, we should serve (teach, pray, build, enhance, intercede, sow- give of ourself).
Scripture reminds us that: “The liberal person shall be enriched, and he who waters shall himself be watered. [II Cor. 9:6-10.]” Proverbs 11:25 AMPC
Our blessings and rewards come as a result of how well we succeed in serving others. The truth is that “he who sows sparingly and grudgingly will also reap sparingly and grudgingly, and he who sows generously [that blessings may come to someone] will also reap generously and with blessings.”
2 Corinthians 9:6 AMPC
Lastly, “God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to us in abundance, so that we may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].”
2 Corinthians 9:8 AMPC
Trust the process and be intentional about sowing seeds of blessings into others.
Do not become weary as we proceed in faith knowing that what we do matters. “For the Lord will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places. And He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the voice of song or instrument of praise.”
Isaiah 51:3 AMPC
My prayer is that we will be faithful in words and deeds for the glory of Gods Kingdom.
“Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]– To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it).”
Ephesians 3:20-21 AMPC
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
“And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you [with abundant increase of favors] and make your name famous and distinguished, and you will be a blessing [dispensing good to others].”
Genesis 12:2 AMPC
