4) Serve

Step number four flows pretty naturally out of the momentum of number three. Once we are owning our journey, feeding ourselves with daily study, our behavior will be changed in the wake. Our deliberate thinking will lead to a new pattern of thinking, which will lead to a strong desire for new behavior.

The more we study and grow, the more we will want to share our abundance of food with others. Our nourished faith will either find an outlet to express itself or it will morph into pride and slowly rot from the inside out. I suggest the former.

Service projects, mission trips, volunteering at the church. These are not just expressions of faith; they are fodder for deeper faith. At a certain point, once you realize how much ‘food’ there really is, you cannot truly be sustained by it unless it is being shared.

It is one of the great and beautiful dichotomies of Scripture. Losing our life to find it. Dying so we can live. Mysteriously, we never feel more alive than when we are giving ourselves away in joy.
