When we are anchored in Christ, we can be those who see a need and fill it and find a hurt and heal it. There are hurting, needy people all around us. When we keep our eyes open, very often God will bring people into our lives who have needs that we can help with. We have been comforted by the Holy Spirit and we get to give that same comfort to those who need it. We can lead them to the comforter, who is the healer of broken hearts. So can you begin to live selflessly, and find someone to serve? Can you look for needs that you can meet? Why not make this the day that you will reach out and help someone. There are places in your life where you have grown and have experienced the grace of God that you can give to someone else. Our church vision statements says we are a place that helps people, and trains others to be helpful. That should be what we are as Christians. Can you look for needs and find a place to meet them. Why not start in your own house. Then at your job, or your neighborhood, or your community. We want everyone we know to experience the love of God and know that God has more for them. We want them firmly anchored in Christ, so that they can keep the wonderful cycle of grace going. We help someone, they begin to help someone else, and so on. So find a need and fill it, and find a hurt and heal it. That’s the gospel in motion!
