Spiritual gifts
The gift of Service & Helps
You see the need and meet it before anyone asks. Nothing runs without you, and you rarely need the credit.
Romans 12:7 · 1 Corinthians 12:28
“If service, in our serving.”Romans 12:7
In the church
Chairs, meals, rides, setup, clean-up, the hundred quiet tasks that let everyone else's gift work. You are the reason the ministry functions.
Outside the church
You are the neighbor with the ladder, the relative who shows up at the hospital, the coworker who covers the shift.
In childhood
You cleared the table without being told. You carried other people's bags.
In adulthood
You learn the difference between serving from love and serving from fear of being unneeded. Rest becomes part of your obedience.
With others who share it
Servers protect each other from burnout. Rotate with others who share this gift and give each other permission to say no.

- Choose the needs you will meet instead of letting every need choose you.
