Opportunity


If someone prays for patience, do you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If they pray for courage, does God give them courage, or does he give them opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for their family to be closer, you think God zaps them with warm, fuzzy feelings? Or does he give them opportunities to love each other?” – As quoted from the movie, Evan Almighty.

Quite interesting when you think about it. Don’t waste your life trying to find opportunities to serve God and be a better person. You are surrounded by opportunities to love and serve. Seize it. Over the last two years of being married, my wife has taught me a very important lesson..well, there are several, but one that stands out the most is learning to give unconditionally. People who have not tapped into the joy of giving are most unfortunate. There are opportunities to give and serve all around you. Give your time, love, ears, heart and passion. Jesus did it for us. We have a responsibility to do the same for His people.

Give. Love. Serve- God. People
