Then…
Care
When you pray for God’s blessing, remember that you can be that blessing!
Look for the opportunities to demonstrate God’s love in their lives.
There are all
kinds of ways it can be done.
Be thoughtful and creative and show that you care.
Finally…
Share
When you pray, pray for opportunities to be an ambassador.
You see, when you pray for opportunities, you will look for opportunities to share the good news.
If God’s love has been demonstrated, the message will be all the more ready to be received.
It’s a simple plan but it works—prayer, care and share.
You know, we have incredible news for hungry people.
There is an end to the siege.
The enemy has been defeated.
And we are free!
There is an old song that says:
I’m not one who has got it all in place Telling you what you should do
I’m just one old hungry beggar Telling you where I found food.
If you know where the food is, shouldn’t you tell people who are hungry where it is?
This is no time to be quiet (Luke 19:37-40)!
(37) When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen: (38) “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” (39) Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!” (40) “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”
The Pharisees wanted the people to be quiet.
They thought what they were saying was inappropriate.
The only thing, though, that was inappropriate, as far as Jesus was concerned, was not announcing the good news.
Be thoughtful and creative and show that you care.

Let me ask one final question will you make a difference in 2013?
