The Bible teaches that the motivation to serve others, all others, selflessly is not from duty or guilt, but because of grace. Because of all that God has done for us, and it is all because of His grace, we are not free to pick and choose who we are to treat with kindness and grace. Our relationship with Jesus prompts us to respond to all others as He has responded to us.

Verse: “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

(Luke 10:36-37)

The Bible is truthful and reliable. We can believe this but not live it out—the Bible should guide the way we think, act, and live. The way of the Bible is for our and our neighbor’s good— living its ways out leads to life and fullness.

2 Peter 1:12-20

Isaiah is given a glimpse into the majesty of God up in heaven, and the praise of angels to God because of His holiness. Viewing God as He truly is shouldn’t scare us but lead us into a deeper relationship. This depth is brought about by our confession of sin and God’s abundant grace of forgiveness. This growing relationship of grace should prompt our hearts into a greater desire not just for worship, but for service to God.

Verse: 6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.” 8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

(Isaiah 6:6-8)
