"By becoming the answer to someone's prayer, we often find the answers to our own." Unknown
Today, I want to challenge you. I want to challenge you to go out and be the answer to somebody's prayer. Be the hope that they have been looking for, be the miracle that they have been asking for, and just change their life for the better! But see, the question that so many people get stuck on is; how do we begin?
See we often deem ourselves incapable, not smart enough, or not strong enough to be the type of person that could change somebody's life. We've never done this before, and we don't see how we could possibly be the answer to someone's prayer. But listen to me, God has created you to not only be strong, capable, and smart enough, but He has created you to do His work! He has created you to go out in the world and share His love with others and to show the love that He would if He was here on earth. So how is it that we can be this miracle or this answered prayer? Well you see, we can start by giving, and we need to give by not expecting anything in return. See, it doesn't necessarily have to be money, of which most people think of when they think of giving. But instead, it can be time, it can be love, it can be happiness, or just a kind gesture. We don't know what people are needing within their lives, and that hug, that compliment, that gift, or that hour spent just talking to them could have been exactly what it was that they needed. That could be the answer to their prayer.
See, and when God sees you doing this, He is not going to let your effort go to waste. But instead, by being someone's else's answered prayer, God is often going to lead you to your own through this situation, and often, it will be in the most unexpected places.
So go out today, and change someone's life for the better, and know and have confidence that you are capable, smart enough, and strong enough to do so. You can be the answer to somebody's prayer, and that is a pretty amazing thing.
THANKS VERY MUCH FOR THE REMINDER, ENCOURAGEMENT, AND INSPIRATION. A HUGE AMEN! !!!!!
