Each of us have a special calling in this world. Most of us in today's society have forgotten our true priorities and have filled the vacancy with greed, lust and the need for self gratification. This need to serve oneself needs to be washed away and replaced with the need, desire and fire to assist our families and loved ones, as well as those we have never met.
There are many people with hidden fears, torment, addiction or other. We need to look in the eyes of those whom we interact with and make sure they are free of these things. If we see pain in their eyes, it is up to us as followers of Christ to see and hear their pain, not through our eyes and ears, but rather our hearts. Opening your heart is an amazing experience.
Open your hearts and see who's life you can improve each and everyday. Look at the person you don't necessarily like very much. Look in their eyes. Look in their hearts. Jesus Christ is there. Be there for Him. Reach out to Him. Help cast away fears and anxiety.
It's much easier to look away and go on with your own life. But if we truely want to make a differnce, and we are ready for that change in our lives, we need to answer three simple questions:
Are you in or out?
If not you, who?
If not now, when?
I am in! It is me and hopefully you! The time is now! Make that change!
May God always bless you and your loved ones.
