The Lord comes to us every day and asks us to do things. I often wonder if he has back-up plans for us? Like if we say no, which we say quite often, he seems to find a way to get what he needs done to happen. But he relies on us. He is asking for our help because the today the hands and feet of Christ are you and me. It is our yes to today; our yes to helping others will make the difference. It will be a marker in other people’s lives for the rest of their lives. But it requires a yes from us; to ponder in our own heart but then to remember at the end of the day, God needs you and me to be his hands and feet.
