Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith. (MSG)
In Galatians 6, God is telling us that we have a responsibility for each other and if our resources (financial or personal) are low, our first concern should be to others who belong to the family of believers. (NIV)
Do you wonder why on earth someone's name pops into your head? You have no idea where it can come from. Whatever you were doing had nothing to do with that person. Absolutely nothing..but as the day goes on, the name won't leave.
So what should you do? Ignore it? Drop an email? Call them?
God say's to reach out and don't ignore them.
I have a friend I recently sent an email to because I had a question for them. Something didn't seem right with the response I got, it didn't seem to be their normal self. Nothing clear or definite, but I felt it in my heart. So I emailed back with the words 'you ok'?
Turns out this person was having a bad day and all the rain we'd been having wasn't helping. So we went out to lunch and just talked. I really hope it helped to lift their spirits, even a little bit. I do know it did mine.
I'm glad I listened to that voice (God) inside telling me to ask the words, 'you ok'?
