Vulnerable

How often do we focus on the I in serving and make it about ourselves?

Take a moment to check out this video: http://walktheway.net/video/vulnerable/

I was struck by the closing comment at the end "What would it look like to serve these people in the name of Jesus in a way that honored their vulnerability and gave them dignity." Wow.

Far too often my focus in serving is on myself and on my own discomfort. I see how wrong that focus is. My focus in service should be in grace, kindness, gentleness and gratitude to those brave enough to open themselves up, allowing me in and letting me love them in Christ.
