Last week I posted a great article by Katherine Myers called, "Service: More Than a Casserole." Now here's her follow up article, "Giving Service with a Cheerful Heart." Like her previous article, this one has great stories from her personal experiences as well as her observations of the services done by those around her.

Reading these articles made me think about the times I've been served. I think it's often much harder to be the one receiving service than to give it, but in so doing we are allowing God to serve us through others, just as we are serving Him when we serve His children.

In what ways have you been served by others? Share your stories with us! What are some simple ways in which we can help others in need?
