Easy Assignment
God gave me an easy assignment today. I felt the Holy Spirit whisper so clearly to go tell a carpenter working on our building today, "God loves you." I wrestled with it a bit. I've had a bit of small talk with him before but I was hesitant. I don't want to be hestiant. I ended up telling him, "God loves you." He even replied with a thank you. I also asked if there was anything that I could pray for him about, but he didn't really dig into my request. He seemed to feel a little akward, maybe I did too. But not as akward as I thought it would be. I've been asking God to give me opportunities to talk to people about Jesus, bless them, or pray for them. This was so easy, to think I almost passed it up due to fear, fear of what someone else thinks about me. I'm glad I didn't back out, but I also don't want that hesitation that I chose to waiver in. Jesus is who changes lives and when God says to do something it's time to do it. That's where I want to live 24-7. Not in some hyper spiritual kooky mode, but being attentive like Jesus was, to what the Father's doing.
