I have received twenty four emails in the last month from people who are hurting. There is an urgency to become a member of God’s support team. One day, you may be the person who is hurting and needs encouragement, support and love.
A dear pastor friend of mine in Texas who I have known for over twenty years once said, “If you complain about a problem, then you need to be part of the solution”. If we know someone that has a need and we do nothing about it, not only are we not extending the Love of Jesus to that person, we are breaking the Heart of our Saviour.
We may not be able to do the things that we would like to do for Jesus because of family commitments and our jobs, but all of us can be an encouragement to one another. Jesus has told us to encourage people because He knows first hand how lonely and hurt someone can feel. He was hurt more than any person will ever be hurt. The tragic thing is that we still hurt Him today by not encouraging people and bearing their burdens.
O that we would fall in love with Jesus and focus all our time, talents, and energy on making Him happy! If ever someone deserves to be happy, it is Jesus! Are you on God’s support team, or are you just ignoring the situation thinking someone else will do it? You may be the one that Jesus wants to use to encourage and minister to someone. Are you ready to be used by Jesus? Are you willing to be used by Him?
