Bloggers on Selfless Service

Ken Brown on Selfishness and Self-Sacrifice in LOST.

Peter learns a lesson on selflessness in the school library.

Here’s another lesson on the rewards of unselfish service from Irena Sendler, a woman who should have won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Sometimes you don’t get your rewards in this life, and that’s O.K. Jesus said:

Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you shall laugh. Blessed are you when men hate you and ostracize you and cast insults at you and spurn your name as evil for the sake of the Son of Man. Be glad in that day and leap for joy, for behold, you reward is great in heaven; for in the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets. But woe to you who are rich, for you are receiving your comfort in full. Woe to you who are well fed now, for you shall be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep. Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for in the same way their fathers used to treat the false prophets

Convicting, much?
