Reaching Out

There are times when we think of people. We think of friends, family members and our sisters and brothers in Christ.  We may not have seen or heard them for a long time and we think to ourselves, "I haven't heard from so and so for a long time."

All relationships take work. We must make the effort to pray and sometimes our lives are filled with distraction. If we don't make prayer and Bible study a priority it isn't long until it just keeps being less and less of a priority.  It's the same way with our relationships.

Jesus had friends.  He visited different households. Not just the saints but the sinners as well. And when we reach out to Jesus, He responds.

Don't waste an opportunity to spend time together with family and friends. Let someone know they have been on your mind.  Make that phone call. Write that card or send that email.



*John 11:5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

*John 4:53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” And he himself believed, and his whole household.

*Luke 19:3- 5  And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature. So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was going to pass that way. When Jesus came by, he looked up at Zacchaeus and called him by name. “Zacchaeus!” he said. “Quick, come down! I must be a guest in your home today.”
