Most all Christians desire to serve God, which is usually understood to be doing some great thing, which then almost always results in us becoming a stuffed shirt.
To serve God ultimately means to fulfill His purpose. Jesus our ultimate example served God by not opening His mouth in His atonement mission. For us serving God may mean 'taking a kicking' - working out some character in us for God's glory, on this side and the other.
