Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me. —John 12:26.
We can’t out-serve, out-love, or out-give Jesus. He longs to bless us. He longs to pour out heaven’s riches and grace upon us. Even more incredibly, he longs to honor us as his friends and younger brothers and sisters in God’s family. When our lives are over, God the Father, Lord of the entire universe, will honor all who have served his Son and blessed others in Jesus’ name! Jesus promised that the Father would bring us home to Himself, who will honor us! Unbelievable? No! It’s just another example of God’s incredible grace given to us in Jesus. And Jesus promised us: Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.
