True Servanthood

Verse for today:
"You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature, rather, serve one another in love." Galatians 5:13

Have you ever met a true servant of God? I mean seriously, one who would lay their life down for you, put their own needs aside and truly serve you? I have. In fact, at this very moment, God has allowed her to share home with me. I am referring to my friend Lezli as well as her family. Under the circumstances, the kind of care I needed required much more than I could of gotten at home. So, Lezli took me in and I honestly dont what I would of done or how I could of made it without her. She tends to my every need, assists me in every way possible, takes me to my Doctor appointments, runs errands for me and truly her and her family are servants, just as Christ commands us to be. She and her husband Mark have taught their girls to be the same way. Truly servants hearts. Its rare that we get to meet someone who has such a heart of Christ and even more rare that we share so much of our lives with them. I am truly blessed to call Lezli my friend, my kindred spirit, and my sister. I love her and her family more than I can put in words.
