The Lord provides for His Church. One of the ways that He does that is by giving the Church leaders who are to serve others even as Jesus served. The needs of Christians are often many – they are spiritual and emotional, and they are also practical. Jesus has given men to supply the Church with acts of mercy and service to adorn the gospel and provide a witness to the world. Deacons are a blessing to the Church and an encouragement to believers to serve one another. As Paul describes deacons, it is a reminder to us of how important the Lord views their service. We should rejoice to “Let the Deacons Serve” (1 Timothy 3:8-13)
