November 9 Doing Our Role – Hebrews 6：9-12

I would admire people getting success in any endeavour of their dream. Considering the great effort and hard work that has been put in. So I hardly feel jealous of other’s success. However, it is a great virtue we can cheer or share in their excitement when seeing others’ achievements.

How should our interaction with each other in the body of Christ look! Every local church has what might be considered key roles. But it also needs the flowers—the ones who do vital but not-so-high-profile work. If others get roles we desire, may we choose to encourage them even as we joyfully fulfill the roles God has given us.

In fact, helping and encouraging others is a way to show love for Him. Hebrews 6:10 says, “God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.”  And no gift from His hand is unimportant.

1 Peter 4:10 says, “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”  Imagine a church of encouragers diligently using their God-given gifts to His honor. That makes joy for all!
