Destitution

   Paul says that he is willing to spend himself extravagantly so that he might serve others for Jesus Christ. He would hold back nothing, but give it his all.

   I say I am willing to give all in order to obey a call of God to service, but does my service actually look like that? Do I forget about myself, my desires, my comforts, my reputation or do I just work really hard looking like I am doing that.

   True service starts with the heart. Halfhearted service is not true service at all, and, although some good might be done, I not sure how much it really counts in God's eyes.

  How much am I willing to destitute myself in order to be a true servant?

  God help me.
