Do Something

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be filled. Matthew 5:6”
Healing begins when you do something. God’s help is near and always available, but
it’s given to those who seek it. Healing
starts when you take a step. God honors
radical, risk-taking faith.
When arks are built, lives are saved. When soldiers march, Jerichos tumble.
When staffs are raised, seas still open. When a lunch is shared, thousands are fed.
And when a garment is touched by the hand of an anemic woman
in Galilee—Jesus stops!
He stops and responds.
Compared to God’s part, our part is minuscule—but
necessary. We don’t have to do much, but
we do have to do something! Faith with
no effort is not faith at all!
Write a letter. Ask
forgiveness.
Call a counselor.
Call a mom!
Visit a doctor. Be
baptized.
Feed a hungry person.
Pray. Teach. Go.
God honors radical, risk-taking faith. And He will respond.
