In God's plan, believers are called to use their gifts and talents to serve others, demonstrating humility and love. As Jesus taught, His followers should serve one another, for "the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve" (Mark 10:45). The apostle Peter urges Christians to use their unique gifts to serve others, while Paul's letters to the Galatians and Romans emphasize the importance of serving with enthusiasm and diligence. Through service, believers can show their devotion to God and care for one another, as Ephesians and other scriptures encourage.
