Called Out

I had a great day. I was excited to go to church. I had homemade strawberry-banana waffles in my tummy so I didn't have to stop by the Shell Station to get breakfast.  The weather was beautiful; I always like it when the sun is out before I am. I got to church and started learning immediately. PK called me out on something and it was hard to swallow at first but the lesson needed to be heard and implemented. Our Guest speaker was great. He hit all the points I have been trying to make for sometime now and I'm glad to have that confirmation…the only way to live is for others.

I have learned over the last few months that I am making a difference and growing with the relationships I build and maintain everyday. Old friends and new, the poor and the rich, the sinners and the saints. Everyone needs love.  Everyone I come across needs someone who cares. Everyone. It's amazing how one life lesson ties to the next and then to another. They are all connected. Love God and love your neighbor as yourself. That sums it up, it's what I'm striving for. I can't lie and say that it's always easy because I think we all know that it's not. It doesn't have to be as hard though, with a little yielding. Yielding to the spirit within that urges us to do the right thing can get easier if we would just practice.

I'm going to practice more. So…if you see me in the street and I don't look like I'm loving, call me out because God has called me forth to do just that. I don't want to disappoint.
