Strength, courage and wisdom. Some days it’s hard to find.
I encountered a young woman at the library. Her eyes were sad, her spirit troubled. Problems were mounting and she couldn’t see a way out. I wasn’t sure if I should approach her, but I took the chance.
I did it because I had known another young woman with troubles. We were close in spirit, yet far in proximity. No one took the time to find out what was wrong with her, at a point when she could’ve listened. I wish they had, she needed help, but was too withdrawn to ask. Yes, it would’ve taken time out of a well planned day. It would’ve required a heart who cared enough to make that change.
What greater investment could you make in a day, but to reach out and
help someone in grave need?
She’s no longer here, but this other young woman is…she’s at the library, she’s in the grocery, she’s in your church, she’s at your job. She can’t reach out, she needs you to reach in and share your strength, courage and wisdom.
Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Phil 2:4
It does take a lot of courage to do something that the Lord is asking me to do because it is usually making me face my fears.
I don’t feel especially courageous today. I’m placing my fears in His hands and praying for the best outcome for my dad. I prayed for God’s will even though it may not be mine.
Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m
having a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your layout seems
different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
@ Nick Norge I use wordpress, The layout is a custom design. Blessings on your blog.
I have been surfing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the
internet will be much more useful than ever before.
Thank you for your kind remarks.
You actually make it seem so easy along with your presentation however I
in finding this topic to be really one thing that I believe I’d never understand.
It kind of feels too complicated and very large for me.
I’m having a look ahead in your subsequent post, I’ll try
to get the dangle of it!
