“Nevertheless they will be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.”” – 2 Chronicles 12:8
When I read this verse, I picture a grand tapestry of service woven together by the hands of both the faithful and the unfaithful, each thread contributing to a greater purpose.
**2 Chronicles 12:8** reminds us that even in times of trial and hardship, God has a plan for His people. He allows us to experience the service of others as a means to teach us about His own service and love. For Christians, this verse serves as a reminder that our experiences, whether good or bad, can be opportunities to learn humility, resilience, and the value of serving others in God’s kingdom.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, help me to embrace the lessons that come from both my service and the service of those around me. May I grow in understanding and appreciation of Your ways, and strive to reflect Your love in my actions. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
