Being In Service — Justikeandthetribe

Whenever I am asked to do anything I always consider two things: is this person representative of the things I value + how can God use me to be a vessel. It is important for me to remain a student worthy of the spaces that the Universe allows me to enter. It is central to my beliefs to remain relatable to my audience so that my message doesn’t get misconstrued by an inflated ego. It is imperative for me to always remain humble, kind + teachable so that the person that I am makes room for the person I am becoming.

As I get older, I recognize that being in service is essential in every area of my life. It is the fabric that permeates my core + forces me to evaluate everything + everyone consistently. Service is the indicator to determine the character of most people when given an opportunity to be a representative of hope disguised as gratitude. I am certain that if most people lead with the heart of being more accommodating there would be more opportunities for people to see grace.

So the next time you are asked to extend kindness, seek to be patient. Not to mention the next time you are asked to spread compassion, seek to spread love. Being in service, is a journey that changes your perspective while teaching you a lesson you thought you were teaching someone else. Allow love to lead every space you enter as you prepare to change the lives of others if for no other reason than you just desired to “help.”
