this morning

I thought about the sick, the down-trodden, the unlovable, the despondent. How easily are they forgotten.

So many times, we want to do big things; to change the world, to make a difference. We want to go for mission trips, we want to serve God in our own ways. But God's heart is for the sick, his heart is for the down-trodden, the unlovable, the people who really needs Him. It's so easy to love those who do not tread on our toes, who are not rude and abrasive, who are not difficult and hurtful with their words..

How easy it is for us to go with the popular, the well, the fun, the well-adjusted, the good-looking. but WWJD.. who will He spend time with.. who will He eat with.. who will He hang out with..

I am reminded to avail myself again, starting from the inside out, starting with the people whom I know personally. Praying for more strength, patience and love.
