God has called us to be servants -- Eph. 4:11-13 (“…to equip the saints for the work of ministry…until we all attain to the unity of the faith…”)
People are God’s Spirit poured into human molds - they are a small part of God tucked away into tiny earthen vessels that we can touch and talk to….and love; in a certain sense, God has given Himself to us in the form of other people
Many people carry an emotional “slop bucket”-- they fill it with leftover feelings and emotions from old conflicts, hurts, and mistakes - then when feelings are stirred up with new conflicts, they empty their “bucket’ over the head of whomever is in their path sometimes themselves)
