Take Time To Reach Out To Others

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ ! God loves you and so do I. Thought for today. Have you ever felt sick and alone? During this time, a feeling of despair would sometimes overcome us. Even if we have everything that we need like food, medicine and time off from work, we still feel isolated and alone from those who are able to carry out their lives normally. Maybe after a couple of days your health is restored and you are able to carry out your daily routines. Can you remember that the feeling of being alone and isolated was at times worse than the feeling of being sick? Now imagine the feeling of being alone and isolated everyday with no chance of ever having a normal lifestyle. This is what some of our Elderly parents or people with terminal illnesses experience everyday. This is the time for Believers to really reach out to show Christ's love. It may be also the last chance for them to experience salvation. Let us never miss the opportunity to treat someone like we would want to be treated if we were under the same circumstance. Let us always be willing and available to show the love and compassion of Jesus Christ bringing honor to his Holy name. I declare and decree that with God's help, I will be available to allow people to feel and experience the Love of Jesus through me. May God eternally bless you and your family !

Give Flowers to the Living
By Elder Gilmore

Living flowers can't replace the pains of regret for not being there.
When our love ones needed us the most, they only saw empty air
.
When will we learn to show compassion while our relatives are alive?
Why do they have to suffer alone feeling rejected and deprived?

Are we really that busy that we cannot make a five minute call?
Checking on our relatives shouldn't be grievous but joyful to all.

Let us present our flowers while our relatives' visions are clear not blurred.
We may be where they are one day; let's pray that our cries will be heard.
