Good morning, dear friends! I hope you're having a wonderful weekend. Today, I'd like to share my thoughts on service, exploring both its advantages and disadvantages.

My journey in service began many years ago when I started serving in my church as a worker. I worked diligently, driven by my love for God and my desire to contribute to the community. As a humble and quiet individual, I've always been motivated by a genuine passion for progress, rather than personal gain.

I thrive in team work, where collaboration and collective effort lead to achieving a common goal. My focus is on delivering results, not on personal benefits. I believe that this selfless approach is essential for growth and progress, and I'm always eager to contribute my skills and efforts to achieve this.

My journey in service began in the church, but soon expanded to the secular world, where I worked with individuals and organizations, providing assistance and support in various offices and projects. One of my key roles involved supervising projects, including building projects, where I ensured accountability by maintaining accurate records.

Accountability is a crucial attribute for anyone in service. I made sure to account for every resource, no matter how small, that was entrusted to me. I believed in delivering results and providing transparent reports, which helped build trust with the people I worked with.

Trust is another essential criterion for effective service. To serve others, you must establish trust with them. Over the years, I've worked tirelessly to build trust with those I've served, and it's been rewarding to see the positive impact it's had on our relationships and collaborations.

Through my experiences in service, I've gained numerous advantages, including valuable skills, knowledge, and connections. But more importantly, I've developed a deeper understanding of the importance of accountability, trust, and selflessness in serving others.

Through my commitment to service, I've gained numerous advantages, particularly in my field of work, music. People readily recommend me due to the exceptional service I've provided, and I strive to consistently meet their expectations.

In my approach to service, I prioritize quality and reliability. I'm mindful of my capabilities and avoid taking on more than I can handle. Instead, I focus on delivering outstanding results, even if it means forgoing personal gains. This dedication has earned me a reputation for excellence, and I'm grateful for the recommendations and support I receive from those I've served.

A key lesson I've learned is that true service is selfless and unconditional. When you serve with an ulterior motive, it's no longer genuine service. Whether in a church, organization, or community, service should be driven by a desire to contribute and make a positive impact, not to seek personal benefits or recognition.

Real service is about giving without expecting anything in return. It's about investing time, effort, and resources without anticipating a tangible reward. When you serve in this spirit, you'll find out that the benefits you receive far exceed any expectations you may have had.

To strike a balance, service should not be limited to those we love or are familiar with. Often, the people we may not see eye-to-eye with or don't particularly get along with can be the ones who have our best interests at heart. However, we may not be mature enough to recognize the value they bring to our lives.

Service should be rendered to those who demonstrate potential and a willingness to grow, true service involves investing in someone's long-term development and well-being.

It's essential to distinguish between helping and serving. Helping is providing temporary aid, whereas serving involves a deeper commitment to supporting someone's growth and learning. When we serve, we not only aid others but also create opportunities for ourselves to learn and grow.

cheers!!!!!
