We are saved by grace through faith. It is not by our works; it is the gift of God. It does not mean that we should only be content with the grace of God while waiting for him to do everything for us as Christians. By his grace, God invites us to be his co-workers in the service. We need to work according to his standard. God has given us the ability to excel because he creates us in his image and likeness. And he said it is good. Christians, children of God, Servant of the Lord, and his co-workers should strive excellence in their service to God. As we serve God through others, our priority should be others wellbeing. Let us honour the Lord through our excellent service to others in everything we do. And it is the service that pleases God. The Father is glorified when his children pursue excellence.
