Know, Grow, SERVE

"You gotta serve somebody." -Dylan

"The high destiny of man is to serve rather than rule." -Einstein

"Be nice to others." -Mrs Springer, my first grade teacher

"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve..."  -Jesus (Mark 10:45)

Today, Clay, Katey and I will be spreading mulch at the local Abused Women's Shelter. This is a simple task that will engage me and my kids in service. Our whole world is wrapped around ourselves and occasionally we need to look beyond the mirror and serve others. (With the expecatation that the "occasionally" becomes routine and a part of how we live our lives.)
