So That the World May Know

While God certainly knows each one of us down to the number of hairs on our head this image shows how He views us as His most treasured of all that He has created. Each one of us, no matter the scars, the disabilities, the color of skin, what we do, how much we have or don't have, our sins of the past ... makes no difference to Him. He desires for all of us to follow Him and be saved. Because of our free choice unfortunately many will not find the narrow path that leads us home to Him in Heaven. But that doesn't mean He gives up and nor should we! This is why Jesus commands us to share this "Good News" with everyone.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

Mark 16:15-16 And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

This is what doing P.A.C.K. (Planned Acts of Christian Kindness) is like. Many of the monthly events we have performed over the past 20 years have brought us to busy public places and we just begin doing or giving to whomever the Holy Spirit brings our way. The recipients of our free gifts or services appear much like the image before you. People of all walks come and the fact that we are providing them with a surprising free act of kindness makes approaching them much easier. What we offer them is pleasantly refreshing and they do not realize what the true impact of that experience may ultimately be! We are sowing the seeds of the Spirit in a loving way. The message comes to the recipient on what is called most appropriately the "Connect Card" as it gives all the credit and glory to God in Jesus Christ. It also provides them with a warm invite to come to your place of worship where they can begin their faith journey. With P.A.C.K. we do not get to choose who we get to love on. The Holy Spirit will be quick to teach you only He knows what is in the hearts of people. He will do this by sending you someone you perceive one way only to have you be thrown for a loop because of an emotional sharing of an in the moment crisis that you never saw coming. This will happen with split second timing leaving you with absolutely no doubt as to His divine presence. P.A.C.K. will indeed deepen your faith and you will be growing His Kingdom at the same time! The Lord will teach you to have a deeper love and understanding for all people just as He does.
