1 John 4:19 We love because he first loved us.

Who is going to be the first one to step forward and show their love for everyone... waits for someone to step forward...

This reminds me of my days at school when the master asked for volunteers to go and work for charity! We all wanted to enjoy the events, but nobody wanted to step forward and help run the events!

Jesus made the first move by coming and laying down His life for us in a great demonstration of His love. Let us continue to replicate that love by sharing it on.

We don’t have to lay down our lives... how about volunteering for a day instead...

Luke 1:38 ‘I am the Lord’s servant,’ Mary answered. ‘May your word to me be fulfilled.’ Then the angel left her.

Did you realise yesterday’s verse was an angel talking to Mary? Today we see Mary’s response – the type of which we need to be willing to live.

If we are willing to trust in God with everything, we will be able to see more things happen because God makes it so!

The more we trust, the more we can see how God works in our communities and in our lives.

Trust in Him wholly!

Luke 1:37 For no word from God will ever fail.

No matter what goes on in this world and no matter how far we stray from God’s Word, nothing will change the truth and what God can do!

We have a God who has promised us much and delivered so much more than we expected.

We have a God who continues to make sure His Word remains the truth and continues to give us hope in our world.

Everything is possible with God – make sure you stand on the right side of the fence!

2 Timothy 2:7 Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this.

How often do you rush in to do things before thinking things through?

I know I have got into trouble before because I have leapt in to fix things without concerning myself with the consequences and have had to pay afterwards!

God wants us to stop and think before we act; this does not mean putting things off until you want to do them but doing them with thoughtfulness!

Will you decide to step forward and help someone today?
