FRANKLIN GRAHAM VIDEO REPORT:
Urgent Appeal for Hurricane Victims

 

As we work in three locations in Texas to help victims of Hurricane Ike, Samaritan’s Purse President Franklin Graham calls for prayer, volunteers, and financial help.

“Unless you are faithful in small matters,

you won’t be faithful in large ones.”

Luke 16:10a (NLT)

Servants do every task with equal dedication. Whatever they do,

servants “do it with all their heart”

(Colossians 3:23 NIV).

“If you think you are too important

to help someone in need,

you are only fooling yourself.

You are really a nobody”

(Galatians 6:3 NLT).

These are some of the verses that come to me via email this morning. I think it no coincidence they arrived on our day of prayer walking at church. Not only did we have people (9) who went to church to prayer walk, but we also had another group (6) who went to the church to do upkeep/repair. Those who did the prayer walking and those who were doing upkeep/repair, with the exception of one, been involved in OnMission in Kentwood (which will formally happen next week and informally happen all week).

Menial tasks were not below Jesus!

Major tasks were not too big for Jesus!

This is the attitude needed by people in all churches where members reach out to bring others “into the fold”. I thank God for each of those who prayed and worked this morning. I think God for the insight He provided and for the burdens and projects He laid on hearts of His people.

If He has been speaking to your heart and you have not yet responded, it’s not too late. You’ll be richly blessed as you take on the menial and the major tasks He gives His people to do. Remember, it’s never too late to get involved.

Have a satisfying Saturday!
