Love them Like Jesus

We are all born with gifts God has given us and over the years I have liked to say that one of my gifts is my Passion for people, its that I see all people, those who are being persecuted by the law for things they have done, those are hurting. Many times when I see the hurt of others I don't sympathise with them I have empathy for them. I feel it tugging so hard at my heart. Well the bible teaches us in many places to Love our neighbor, to Love our enemy. But the Bible also teaches us that we should have open hearts and eyes for those who are hurting, and lonely.
In Galations 6:2 the bible says "Share each others burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ. 3 If you think you are too important to help someone, you are only fooling yourself. You are Not that important.

Also in Romans 15:2-3 We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord. For even Christ didn't live to please himself. As the scriptures say, " The insults of those who insult you, O God, have fallen on me."

1 Corinthians 9:19 Even though I am a free man with no master, I have become a slave to all people to bring many to Christ.

Galations 5:13 For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don't use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature . Instead use your freedom to serve one another in Love.

And so I work with the youth, a population of youth that is hurting, that is lonely and that is lost. My heart is with them. God has hand picked me and placed me their to share his love, to teach of his forgiveness. I pray for my youth today, that they may come to know Christ so that they can know that they too are made for a purpose, their life has meaning and a plan. They are loved beyond measure. I ask that as I end this blog that you to pray that God work through me each and every day. I also have a strong burning desire to go to India this year, I have been wanting to go for years but this year is my year and the desire is so strong its burning through me.
