“I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.” -Rabindranath Tagore
I know Tagore was not a Christian, but I take many of the things he says and interpret them through a Christian lens. In this case, it reminds me of serving and loving God; and to serve and love God, one must serve and love his fellow man. So those secular humanists who wish to focus solely on their fellow man and leave God out of the picture, might actually find their Christian counterparts just as knee deep in service to man as they are, if not deeper on many spiritual levels.
Christianity in it’s fullness and purity embraces all truth, regardless of the source. That is because all Truth comes from Jesus Christ.
Service is a joy. This is truth. And it doesn’t matter who says it, it’s still true.
You are quite right!
