Whether it is in our future careers, our schooling, or the activities we are a part of, we set goals because we aspire to be great—which makes this verse sound kind of strange. Being ‘great’ and being a ‘servant’ sound like complete opposites. But God isn’t saying you can’t aspire to be great at something. God is saying, choose to be great at things that matter—like serving others, helping out, and treating others like they are important to God. When we are willing to show up for others, when we’re generous with what we have, and when we see the needs of others, we step into a partnership with God.
Today, take time to listen to how God is asking you to help others.

About this Plan
We know that anything of value probably has a counterfeit version out there. The same is true for our faith. Maybe copying the behaviors of other believers was a great place to start your faith journey, but how can we move beyond copying Christians to following Jesus? How do we make our faith our own? The difference between a counterfeit faith and an authentic faith is growth and heart change.
