We Are Called

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. Whether you are here out of curiosity, or because you feel called, I am glad you stopped in. Here, all are welcome.

As Christians, we are called to greater service. It's not always easy to put others first and to remember this life on earth is temporary. There are so many days when it's easy to feel like you don't have time, or someone else can do it. Those are the days when you can allow Christ to work through you the most. Service to others gives you a feeling of gratification you can't find elsewhere. Often times, you find yourself truly enjoying the company of strangers who want to be loved. You realize the faith of these people is often stronger than our own. You will find yourself learning and discovering more about your own faith through service to others; Besides you never know when you will be encountering an angel among us....

          I have shared some of my favorite quotes, and Bible verses that inspire me to continue God's mission for me on earth.

"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, "I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you? The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.”
