Harvest

Today was great! Our church does a "Hallelujah Harvest" at one of our Awana leader's harvest shop, to celebrate what God has done for us. Everything is free, since God's gift to us - salvation-is free. All that happens is because of volunteers that help and give up thier time to run the moon jump, hay rides, pumpkin bowling, and all the other things. Many Chirstians come, but a lot of them bring friends or neighbors who aren't saved. It's a great opportunity to spread the Word of God.
I was thinking. We (including me) will give up our time to help with an event like this because it's fun, to further the Kingdom; but we won't give up two seconds to say hello to a new person we see at church because we need to talk with our friends about something. Or, to help with another outreach, missions-type event because we don't think it will be fun to do. I challenge you- don't give up an opportunity serve someone, no matter how little or big the task, God will shine through you! I'm reminded of the team at Summit who gave up their free day to work at the Denver Mission. I thought that was so awesome! They took an opportunity and made it happen. In those few hours that they were there I know they made a big difference, and had many opportunities to share what God can do!
Think about it. Jesus Christ gave up His life that we might live. Shouldn't we be able to give up a few minutes of our life that someone else might live?

Don't know what I'm doing...

Hi Everyone!
This is my first ever blog, so I'm just figuring everything out. I plan to post something new at least every week, and I hope to have my site up in the next week or two. Have a great day and I hope you'll join me on my quest for ways to serve!
