Wednesday-Sharing the Overflow with Others

Let us not forget to pray for our friends and families in Florida and along the coast in the track of Ian.  May God’s mercy  be displayed throughout this storm! And Lord, if it is in your will , please turn this storm back safely into the sea, in Jesus name!

John 13:34-35 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

How to put love back into  the world ....  small things we can all do !

💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

1. Write a list of things you love but forget to be grateful for. Post it somewhere.   And remember to give thanks for  every good gift!  Love flows from a grateful heart.

2. Call your mom, or a relative or friend in nursing care, etc.

3.If you have a little sibling or cousin or niece or nephew, plan a date with them.  Wake them up and tell them you’re going to take them to a movie they wanted to see or out for lunch or to the toy store or for ice cream. 

4. Next time you are at church or anywhere ask: What can I do to help?

5. Pay someone a phone call just for a friendly chat.

6. Make a little extra dinner tonight and share it with someone you normally don’t.

7.Call your grandparents.

8.Apologize for things that happened a long time ago, even if you’re certain the other people involved have forgotten. You don’t know what people still carry with them. You don’t know how much healing comes from a simple: “I’m sorry” from someone you thought would never say it.

9.Ask a cashier, barista, waitress, cab driver, DMV employee etc. how their day is going and have a discussion with them. Treat them like people, not inanimate servants. You might even offer to pray for them.

10. Bake an item to share with a neighbor

 I had to share this one..   And we all are  ...

Finally,
Promises of God continues:

Matthew 11:28-29 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. ²⁹ Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

 

2 Corinthians 12:9-10⁹ But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. ¹⁰ For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong

 

Isaiah 40:31 but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles;

they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
