(Inspired while reading Message to The Mother Church for 1902 by Mrs. Eddy)
The only worthwhile ambition?
To serve God and help the race,
not elbow other people
for personal gain and place.
"I am among you as he that serveth"*,
our blessed Master said.
And the one true way to a
life worth living Jesus has led.
Taking more and more of the
"me" out of what we do
will allow more of Christ's power
to come shining through.
And is it not more of
His comforting touch
that people hunger for,
what they need so much?
To minister unto others--
not be ministered to--
what a worth-pursuing goal
this will be for me and you.
*Luke 22:27
