As Christians we have to make sure that our heart is in the right place when we give service. Is it for show or is it from the heart. God does not want our service to be in vain, for a show, which would render our good deed unacceptable to God. Our service to God for his sheep is demonstrated through sincere, heartfelt brotherly love towards all of our sisters and brothers in Christ, wherein, we must rid ourselves of unclean thoughts and actions. Giving of service requires having an humble spirit and kind heart.
I Corinthians 13......gives us the only definition of what true love and how it should be exemplified throughout out daily walk through life. It reminds us that demonstrating love is even greater than faith and hope.
