Serving the Lord is not a sacrifice; it’s a soul-stirring investment that pays eternal dividends!In the beginning of the church, the apostles said in Acts 6:4 “But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the Word.” David said in I Chronicles 29:5: “Who then is willing to consecrate his service this day to the Lord?” A Christian worker in a foreign land was asked what remuneration he received for his labors. Knowing it couldn’t be much, the inquirer found it difficult to understand why anyone would give so generously of himself to help total strangers. The missionary read a letter with these words: “If it weren’t for you I wouldn’t know Jesus as my Savior.” Every morning I kneel in prayer thanking God for everything you’ve done for me. The dedicated worker said, “That’s my pay.” The one who seeks to win souls is really the “best paid” of all. He enjoys thrilling satisfaction here, and can look forward to even greater reward in Heaven!
