In ancient Israel, the people asked what they had to do to please God. The prophet Micah answers:
“O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:8 (NLT)
To put it quite simply, service to others puts legs on our faith.
Jesus, the King of kings and Lord of lords, got right down in the dirt and served the poor, outcasts, and sinners. It only stands to reason that if we are truly “Christ-followers,” we will follow his example by serving our neighbors in practical ways.
