Serve the Lord Sunday

Serve the Lord Sunday came about when I wanted to teach the children how to live out their faith by being the hands and feet of Jesus. It was during a time when church quit working for us due to autism but I didn’t want to just spend Sundays not giving thanks to God for all He’s done for my family.

The preparations for Serve the Lord Sunday are actually done on Saturday evening and put into action on Sunday.This makes it more likely that it will get done and helps me to spend less time on the computer on Sunday. I believe that I spend way too much time on the computer during the week. So, on the Sabbath day, I give it up. I don’t even turn it on. This is really hard for me as I love to try to get ahead for the week but I will spend all day on it if I could.  It’s a small sacrifice but one that I do out of love for God and my family. On Sundays, I spend time in worship with Him then spend time with my family. Taking care of the details on Saturday also sets us up for success in getting our action actually completed.

God doesn’t need a huge sacrifice from you. What He really wants is for you to serve Him with all your heart,mind, and soul. He wants you to spend time with Him in fellowship and to serve others. Seriously, it’s that easy.

When you give sacrificially, He always draws you closer to Him. He wants you to put Him first in everything. That’s what I am doing on Sundays when I stay off the computer all day. It’s what I’m doing when I listen to the Holy Spirit tell me to help that person or to not watch that program. It’s what I’m doing when I give my cares and concerns to Him and believe with all my heart that He will use me for His Glory. It’s what I’m doing when I start my day with devotional time with Him and I end my day with Him. My kids are watching me the whole time. When we step out to serve as a family, we build memories and strengthen our faith at the same time. What more could a mom ask for?
