Every Life has a story...


I couldn't help but to watch this video and think about all of the people who walk into churches across the globe every week hurting, searching, in need of a touch from God.  It literally makes my heart break to think that even one person who is hurting may not find the acceptance and love that they are seeking from a body of believers.  The scripture on my heart tonight:


Matthew 22;37-40 “And he said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.38 This is the great and first commandment.39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets. “

If we were in the shoes of those who are hurting, what would we want?  A shoulder to cry on?  A person to listen?  Someone to pray with?  Someone to watch their children while they go for a job interview?  Someone to drive them to the hospital for treatment?  Whatever the answer is, we should be looking to fulfill it and demonstrate Christ's love by loving our neighbor as ourselves.  

Every life truly does have a story...if we are just willing to listen...

Let the Love of Christ reign supreme in all that you do, and let's love on some folks!
