Service to man is service to God

            Milton was sad that he could not serve his creator for he had gone blind. But he consoled himself by saying ‘they also serve who stand and wait’. It was a poor consolation. His real solace lay in the fact that billions and billions of people do his purpose in the world. The purpose of God – is to create and sustain. Thus those who sustain human beings,those who are in the service of man are really in the service of God.

 

             Many great men laid their lives to serve man.They actually served God. Abraham Lincon served the cause of Negroes. He abolished slavery and made them free. It was a divine task. Jesus laid his life in the service of man, so did Buddha. The great revolutions like De Valera of Ireland and Bhagat Singh and Chandra ShekharAzad served man in India.They were the real persons who served God.

 

            God actually loves those who love his creation. One can find people serving the creation not only in legends. They are there in flesh and blood in modern world too. There are people serving the tribal’s and the down trodden all over the world. In serving human beings they actually serve God. Let us hope that the number of such people increases so that the work of God may be shared by man.
