1 Peter 5:2-4
 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.


Reflection
As you read the scripture today, how do you think it describes the motivation for service? What might this look like when lived out in your life and the life of the church?
