Improving your relationship with God - 4

4. Caring
considerate, thoughtful, helpful, concerned, loving

When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me more than these?" 
"Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." 

Again Jesus said, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Take care of my sheep." 

The third time he said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" 
Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you love me?" He said, "Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my sheep. John 12:15-17

Our task: When God speaks to us, we are going to listen. We will not do the work of God just to fulfill a duty. But show the zeal, love, care, concern, helpfulness in and for the work of God and for the souls.

"Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is helpful to me in my ministry." 2Timothy 4:11

Can God count on you? How helpful are you to what God has entrusted in you (His field/ministry)?
