Exercising the Right to Serve

Serving God is a lot like exercise. Some people live a long time without exercising and other people who exercise all the time drop dead from a heart attack in the prime of life. However, it would be foolish to think that there is no link between exercise and life expectancy. It is only one factor among many, but it is an important factor. The same is true of serving God, God takes special care of those who serve Him faithfully. This does not mean that He doesn’t care for other people or that nothing bad will happen to those who serve Him, but all other things aside, those who serve God are more likely to experience the care of God in life than those who do not.
