A Challenge

Yesterday, the Lord certainly met with us in His church! I know for so many people church isn't fun, but our church is...as it should be. Who said loving, serving, and praising the Lord is supposed to be boring. Who wants to be a part of that? From the beginning of worship all the way to Amen, you could feel the excitement, love, and joy from everyone around. Yesterday was senior recognition at church and Jared preached on being the salt and light of the earth. He talked about the impact that salt and light both have on their surroundings...they are "game changers". That's exactly what we are supposed to be as Christians too...game changers. Our circumstances, situations, relationships: EVERYTHING should be changed because of our impact in that situation. Jared gave each of us a domino that read "Start Something" on it . He challenged each of us to do something this week for someone who woudn't expect it. When you do something for them, give them the domino, tell them what it means, then see if they'll pass it along. As of Monday morning, I have two possible people I could be a blessing to. I think its neat how the Lord gives us opportunities everyday. Responding to those opportunities is all up to us. We make the choice. So many times I've passed up opportunities for rediculous reasons. Fear, embarrassment, whatever the reason, it all seems so silly when you step back and look at the big picture of it all.

So my challenge to you is the same Jared gave to our church yesterday. Do something. Start something. Bless someone. Change the world you live in, one person at a time. If everyone changed the world, one person at a time, I bet we'd be in a better place than we are today.
