"And the whole multitude sought to touch him; for there went virtue out of him and healed them all." -- Luke 6:19
During a day we meet from one to twenty people. Maybe they come into your office. Maybe you see them in the grocery store. Maybe it's simply a phone call. But everyone you meet has a need. You may not know what it is at first. But they might actually share their need with you if you listen. They might be lonely or sad. They might have health problems. Their children might be in trouble.
You are uniquely gifted to help someone today. Not everyone. But someone. Someone needs something you are gifted with. Maybe you have a gift to listen. Or maybe you are an intercessory prayer warrior. Maybe an encourager. You might have a golden opportunity today to minister to someone who needs just what you have to give.
A lot of people want to change their circumstances but don't know how. They need a word from the Lord. Maybe He has put you in the path of one of those people today. Jesus was a healer, a teacher, a comforter, a restorer. So are you. You have it within you to be kind, generous, and compassionate today. This is your opportunity to use your gifts for good.
Slow down today. Stop for a moment. Really listen to someone who pours out their heart. They may have been looking for you all of their life. Be a resource for them. Plant seeds of love and caring. Believe me it will come back to you. You will reap a harvest of blessing.
