mid-week LiFE...
A quick thought and challenge...
There are lots of needs that surround us...the sick co-worker, the homeless man at the top of an off-ramp, the elderly neighbor, your children need dinner are just a few routine needs...
How do you choose which people to serve?
Let me give a piece of advice that may help you. Start with your immediate relational spheres of influence.
Personally, mine starts with my wife. I serve her first and then my 2 daughters, and then who is next depends on my sphere's of influence and who I want to prioritze. My co-workers are next becuase I have chosen that as my mission field becuase I can build relationship and serve needs becuase I am invited to participate in their lives...
Once you have chosen people to serve then start doing it...
