Serving and Hospitality

Romans 12:13
    “distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.” NKJV

    According to the NKJV grammar structure, this and the previous verses were all referring to the phrase in verse 10, “Be kindly affectionate with brotherly love,” and these are just two more steps to doing that sincerely.
    Give to those in need in the church and be hospitable. To be hospitable is to “offer a pleasant or sustaining environment.”
    So all that I do should be to cater to the needs of my fellow Christians, but beyond that, to work in such a way that does not hinder a brother’s joy, but instead breeds joy.
    This is love and devotion.
