Service

We are called to serve God and his people. Mostly, all the time, that service requires something more of us than we might be anticipating. 

For example, God may take us out of our comfort zone; or we may have to take time out of our busy day to help someone; or he may ask us to do something difficult or physically demanding. We may never know how our faithfulness will echo into eternity, but God sees even those smallest acts of kindness and service. 
And He promises to reward even a cup of cold water in his name (see Matthew 10:24; Mark 9:41).
