Hello ,
It's Monday, and we're in
the thick of the holiday season...preparing for the next upcoming day that so many people look forward to. This week, you will no doubt run into people who are scrambling to get their holiday affairs in order. You will also encounter people who are truly struggling through the upcoming weeks ahead because they are so incredibly lonely. It's a fact, and I've seen this more than I care to...for many people, the holidays are the most difficult and painful times during their years.
Let me challenge you to go out into your world this week and make a difference for the kingdom of God. It might be a kind word to a frazzled mother who is wrestling with her children at the grocery store, or a genuine smile to a store clerk that feels exhausted from pulling extra hours of work, but each of us
has within our grasp, the ability to do something for God's kingdom.
Please let me know what the Lord has laid on your heart, and write me back to tell me about an experience you may have had. I will gladly share it with our subscribers if I receive something that reminds us once again...that Jesus is the reason for
this season.
Have a great day and God bless!
Pastor Mike / The Open Word
