"So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone and especially to those who are of the household of faith." (Galations 6:10 NKJ)
"Be sober minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour." (1 Peter 5:8 NKJ)
As the saying goes, "Another day, another dollar." Or in todays economy another fifty cents. I look at it this way, another day, another opportunity. Another opportunity to get it right. Another chance to better serve God.
God is into do overs. So don't worry or stress if you mess up. We all do. Just repent and start again. If you woke up this morning, then God isn't done with you. If you are breathing, you still have work to do. You still have an opportunity to get it right, you can still get others saved. You can still lend a helping hand to someone.
There is still time to put the devil in his place. Still time to take a stand against his evil in the world. There is still time. But don't wait too long, time is running out. But as long as you are here you can make a difference in someones life.
The holidays are coming up. Send an elderly neighbor a plate of food for Thanksgiving. They may not have close family to celebrate the day with. Adopt a resident at a nursing home. As a former nursing home employee, there is always a few residents who doesn't have family so they don't get a card, much less a gift at Christmas.
As for me, I have started sending cards to two different nursing homes for the residents. I hope I might have brightened someone's day a little. I plan on it again this year. By the way, I sign them from the youth group at my church. I figured it might mean a little more from the church kids. Those are ways to make a difference. There are others.
Don't let an opportunity pass by. Make a difference in someone's life.
Have a great day!
