Be Listening and Responsive!

"Then he said to them, 'Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.'" -Luke 9:48 (NIV)
We can look at the world and see a lot of things that need some attention.  We can also make choices to get involved or to remain on the sidelines watching events and situations unfold.  Sometimes it may seem easier to stand by and watch, but we also want things to get better.  How do we choose to respond?

I recently heard a presentation from a speaker that has built an organization that helps youth and young adults address environmental problems.  He seems to follow the advice that Jesus has given us.  One step is to welcome children and welcome God, the One that sends them.  When we are welcoming and listening to children, we also learn to humble ourselves.  When we stop to listen to those in our lives sent by God, we are also stopping to listen to God.  When we hear God's messages, we can be ready to respond out of humility and out of God's love!  We can be ready to respond and take action!

Listen to those that God sends into your life and then respond accordingly!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the opportunities that You have presented to me and that allow me to learn and grow.  Help me to use what You teach me to respond accordingly out of humility and love.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
