Moderators John317 Posted December 20, 2009 Moderators Posted December 20, 2009 Hopefully some of that will get done on the Club Adventist Forum, so maybe you are doing more than you might think. You'll find out for sure when Jesus comes but I think you'll see some of the evidence before then. Courage! :-) Quote John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
Members phkrause Posted December 20, 2009 Members Posted December 20, 2009 It would be to give Hope to the Hopeless. Yet.... what am I doing about it? Excellent statement Stan, and yes what are we doing about it? I feel like I'm not helping at all. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
GreatLakesGramma Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 God doesn't call all of us to do big things. Most of the time He calls us to reach out to just one person. It may be in only a very small way that seems insignificant to us, yet it is a very big thing to that one person at that time. If you are faithful in the little things, you should rejoice that God allows you to share in His work, and not fret that you haven't done anything big. If you aren't being faithful in the little things, then you do have something to be ashamed of. But if you are trying to be faithful and feel like there must be more you should be doing, then ask God to open your eyes. Too often, we start to feel guilty that we aren't doing enough, and we run ahead of God. Then we only get in His way, and do more harm than good. Sometimes obedience means to wait. But even in the waiting times, we can keep in practise by always being kind and pleasant to everyone we meet, especially the ones who aren't pleasant themselves. And sometimes just give a smile to a stranger in a crowd. Quote Catherine God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26. "To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you." -- C. S. Lewis
