I know I keep going back to, "your purpose", and "God's plan for your life"! But I keep thinking, what would my city look like if.... What would my state look like if... What would my country look like if... What would the world look like if!!! If everyone acted upon God's calling in their life! If every person that was called to help the homeless! DID! If ever person that was called to help prostitutes! DID! If every person that was called to hunt down human traffickers! DID! If every person that was called to search out the pedophiles! DID! If every person that was called, just stepped out in faith!
Matthew 25:35&36 says, "For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. 36. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me."
The next couple versus the righteous one's said, "When?" They were confused! They had never met Jesus before! Then in verse 40 Jesus says, "I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!"
Every single one of us is a child of God! Our free will gives us the right whether or not to deny that fact! But the hard fact is, Jesus bought each one of with His blood! He paid the price for us!
Each one of us is someone's son or daughter! Each one of us is someone's brother or sister! Cousin! Neice or nephew! Best friend!
Why do we wait for something to happen to a close loved one, for it to become a passion of our heart? Why are we not all mad about what is happening to our children!?!? Why are we not taking a bigger stand against drugs?!?! Against human trafficking!?!? Against all the monstrous preposterous things that are happening!?!?! Whether they
are our own flesh and blood or not- they are your brothers and sisters in Christ!
We have become so consumed in our own lives, our own families, our own surroundings! We have become numb to the pain that is raining all around us! We get trapped in our schedules and overexert ourselves into exhaustion just by thinking about everything we think we "should" be doing!
But in the very recent past- there was time! There was time that people spent helping other people! The pandemic really helped shut that door! It made people fear everything that outside the four walls of their home!
But it is now TIME!!! It is TIME people!! It is TIME to regain our footing! And start taking a stand against everything that is wretched and decrepit out there!!!
Isaiah 41:9&10 says, "I have called you back from the ends of the earth, saying 'you are my servant' For I have chosen you and will not throw you away. 10. Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."
Glory! Are you chosen?? Will you allow God to speak to you!?! Will you step out in faith?? Will you set aside your fear??
Until next time:
Numbers 6:24-26
24. May the Lord bless you and protect you!
25. May the Lord smile upon you and gracious to you!
26. May the Lord show you His favor and give you His peace!
