There are probably very few scenarios where we ought to push for ‘first’. One is the Olympics. The other is volunteering. The thing is, if you wait for someone else to put their hand up before you, you miss the opportunity to make a generous difference. It might be a tiny ripple or a mighty wave of change. Today, be willing to put the hard work in when nobody else wants to.
Be first to raise your hand.
Today’s Challenge:
Small ideas, big impact: Offer to do the lunch run at work, or wash up everyone’s mugs at the end of the day. Offer to pray for someone – don’t wait for that ‘more spiritual person’ to step up. Say ‘yes’ to that difficult task announced at the PTA meeting. You get the idea … run with it!
Make some Easter waves: Been wanting to volunteer but couldn’t decide when to start? Now is the perfect time!
Change the world (probably): Got a local soup kitchen? Maybe a social action project for the community? Go ahead and phone up the organizers today and offer your time.
“Work with a smile on your face, always keeping in mind that no matter who happens to be giving the orders, you’re really serving God.” Ephesians 6:7
Here is a shameless plub but we have some amazing opportunities to be a special part of one of four Easter services this year! And the best part…it’s a one time commitment…no strings attached! Check out c3church.tv/evol
