Don't Let Your Rent Be Late...He's Always On Time

Community Service is the rent we pay for living on this Earth. How many of you would be short on rent every month, or the majority of the months?

You have been blessed with a spot on this earth, and your renters rules are simple. Everyday you are encouraged to live your best life possible, co-exist with your neighbors, contribute to society in as many ways as possible, and pay your rent! Your rent is the service you do in your community. You can do something as small as buy someone that is hungry food, or as large as building a school in Africa. Whatever the deed, it will be weighted the same way and put towards your rent for being on this earth.

To make sure that you have enough rent by the end of the month, I would suggest that you give back to someone else at least once a week. Your God is aware that you still have to work, eat, and play to survive on this earth; so, if you can make time at least once a week, you are off to a great start.

I think everyone's goal should be to increase the amount of service they do as they continue to live on this earth. You should always be striving to do as much as you can for the community and in different ways.

God blesses us everyday and never says that he is too busy to give back to us. Why wouldn't you spend your days making sure to pay God back for all that has been given to you? When you give to others, that is all the thanks that he needs.

Everyday that you wait to give back because you feel like you are not ready or don't have enough time, is another day missed that could have saved a starving child or failing student. Don't let your rent be late.

I love your spin on this! And it's very true. Far too often we complain about our education systems or the direction of our youth yet we limit our "service" to the confines of a church event, a donation or a vote....far more can be done. EASILY! Community service, mentoring and other forms of giving back are truly the best things money can't buy.

Be an example...help somebody!

I'm working on my mortgage!!

I love this.

I do agree with you. We are so spoiled and fail to give back. I have been working on giving back "Service wise" It was so much easier in college. But this just gave me motivation to give back.
