God needs our hands, our hearts, our minds and our practical skills for Himself. All of us are trainees for His kingdom.
We are all God's instruments to "massage a heart" or "dislodge obstructions", but sometimes it's in the spiritual sense not the physical.
Are we over-looking some important things:
----a heart to heart talk
----a hand in hand walk
If we distribute these small things in time of need God will take over with a spiritual heart.
Kindly deeds are life-giving.
Can you lead someone just a little closer to LIFE!
I know of someone who needs this life right now, am I going to reach out to them? You KNOW IT!
What about you do you know someone who is in need of a new life, are you going to resuscitate them and give them new life?

Thanks so much for the reminder to take note of what is going on around us, and be Jesus to those needs.
I see the two books that you have listed on your reading list... how are they going for you?? Would love to hear.

you know, sometimes I think we dont always have to share the gospel with words and pointing out Bible verses like we are all told to do and we think thats what we should be doing. You can share the gospel just by smiling at someone when you walk by them, asking your waitress how she is her name and leaving a GOOD tip!!!, telling a friend you love them to make sure they know it(no matter how awkward it makes you feel), telling someone to have a great day, actually speaking to the lady checking you out at the grocery store instead of just handing her money and saying thanks as you walk away without even looking at her. There is so much we can do to show people God's love for them.
"Preach the gospel. If necessary, use words."
Lynn,
The books are AWESOME! Thanks for sharing them with me. God is really showing me a lot through them.
