Surprise!

I actually forgot this thing existed, as I am sure everyone else has as well.
We're mixing it up a little bit these days, I've started working at the Mustard Seed, and I am beginning to see that this God of ours has a plan to use me, whether it is at the Seed letting people in the door, at my home cooking people dinner, on the sidewalk smiling at a stranger, or in the restaurant inquiring about a waitresses day.
Last night we had the big Christmas bash, turkey dinner and blessed fellowship. I was reminded of how God has given me such a great group of people to call friends.
One thing that stuck out in my mind was the way my friend Jenni described someone. "He's a guy that loves people. Not the ministry he's employed by, but just people, wherever they may be."
I want to be known as someone like that. Just someone who genuinely loves people. Regardless of their societal status, their political beliefs, their religious and denominational affiliations, or their physical presence. Just loves, because that's what my Jesus does.
Bless you.
