Reaching beyond ourselves
What joy I find in helping others find opportunities to give themselves away! I truly believe God has called me to this task. As a former social worker, perhaps I am more aware than most of all the many ways that we can reach beyond ourselves in helping a hurting world. Maybe it's also the fact that the Lord has opened my eyes because of mission trips I've been on, service opportunities that I've had, and people he has put in my path. One of my greatest joys is when a young person reaches beyond him/herself and discovers the absolute JOY of helping others! My heart's desire is to encourage others to stretch out their hands for the pure joy of reaching beyond themselves! 1 John 3:16-17
