● Rom 12:7a . . If your gift is that of serving others, serve them well.
"serving well" implies serving conscientiously and whole-heartedly rather than half-baked, grudging, and/or hit and miss.
One of my brothers has been a construction foreman for decades and one of his perpetual complaints is that he never knows from one day to the next whether some of the men he hires on jobs will show up. In other words: they aren't reliable-- he can't count on them.
What I'm saying is: if you're thinking about becoming helpful in some way, don't do it unless you're willing to commit to the long haul because people need to know that they can depend on you to stay the course.
