I'm really excited about this Christmas season for a number of reasons. But the #1 reason why I'm so excited is because LifePoint gets to serve and give in the life of five families. We have been given five names of families who are just going through a tough time. And are having difficulty finding any joy in the upcoming days. So we are going to start with Thanksgiving and provide to these families a full thanksgiving dinner that we will drop off at their homes on Sunday afternoon. The cool thing about this is that we aren't going to just drop food off and tell them to have a great day. We, as a church have a desire to build relationships with these families that we pray will be long lasting. We want to know how we can pray for them, and how we can help them. The bible talks about having compassion for people, the definition for compassion is seeing a need and having the desire to alleviate it. That is what we want to do, see the way Jesus sees, so that we can have compassion for the people around us and be able to help alleviate those needs. See it's all about being the church not just doing church. Showing people the love of Jesus yesterday, today, and tomorrow. I just can't wait to see what God is going to do through this.
And to all of you at LifePoint, thanks for stepping up and providing food you all are awesome!!!
P.S. I can't wait to see what your going to do for Christmas:0)
