Day 5_ Guvna B_Offer

I feel like deep down all of us want to be loved and accepted. That’s the dream isn’t it? To have people around us, that always look out for us and treat us in the best way possible. Sometimes though, because we are human, people let us down and we get hurt by different friendships and relationships. This can cause us to become cautious and not trust people. Can even cause us to look for number 1 - ourselves. There is nothing wrong with looking out for yourself but I wonder what would happen if we had the king of kings, lord of lords on our side? Someone who has our backs through every single situation? I wonder what would happen if we knew that we were never ever alone? Would it give us the confidence to put our defences down and look out for others? I think maybe so. When I switch on the news or walk out into the streets, all I see is need. Loads of people need help. And I wonder if we can use the security we got in Jesus to help others. I wonder if can go out there with the knowledge, that Jesus has our backs and that He cares for us. And use that knowledge to do the same for others. Let’s extend the same love that Jesus has given to us by offering to help people in their times of need.
