To Care Again
Perhaps
you and I have a cause, a passion, about which we care. Maybe even, we dare speak up, we demonstrate,
we write a book or a song about this great passion of our hearts.
…
and nobody notices.
Few
read what we wrote. Nobody
comments. Nobody acknowledges anything
relative to our stance and passion on life.
And
what do we do? How do we respond?
Sometimes,
the easiest thing is to walk away.
Perhaps we vow to ourselves that we will never speak up, ever
again.
And
that is the end … maybe.
I’ve
written some, in my opinion, amazing blogs.
(You can help me scratch my swelled head if you like.)
Interestingly,
some of those blogs have gone on to be largely ignored. But I care enough to keep writing. I care enough to do what I do, think what I think,
and write as often and as many blogs per week as I write. I care.
I’m
seeking to make a change in people. This
change I seek … to see the light of hope come into someone’s eyes and heart, to
offer someone on this planet hope, encouragement and inspiration. And my tools are five blogs and a podcast
site.
This
is important work to me. It is
life-giving work. When I was recovering
from my surgery, for six weeks I couldn’t write. I couldn’t form any significant thoughts
worthy of a blog, and I grieved over that.
Now, I’m back in stride. I’m
still looking for the seeds of a few ideas that might transform someone’s mind
and heart toward a better goal, a lofty and magnificent obsession.
For
instance, in my blog, Internet
Church, I write, hoping someday to hear the story of some down-n-out person
who stumbles across this blogsite and finds a life-transforming word of hope
and grace. Maybe they haven’t darted
into a church for years – maybe never.
And one fine day the need arises for a God-connection and they
miraculously find Internet Church. That
would be something, now wouldn’t it. And
so, I keep trying
I
have objectives for all of the blogs I write.
The others do not take such a direct route toward God, but they are
meant to benefit mankind by offering this hope, encouragement and inspiration I
talk about so much.
Bottom
line … I am one who cares. I care for
mankind. I care for you, my reader,
whoever you are, wherever you live and with whatever you face in your life here
on earth.
My
word to you today … care again. Care for
your calling, care for your gifts, care for your passions, care for your
talents, care for your family and fellow man, and care for this world.
We
need care givers!
This
is my morning reflection.
Words of Hope
Encouragement
