My experience of people who talk about service all the time is that they want servants.
They mix up ministry with mastery and counsel with command.
They claim that they are serving when they are self-serving.
And they reinforce their own power and position.
Rather than serving I would prefer to love.
Then there can be no confusion.
We are here to love.
Not to lord it over others.
