A Question For The Church

Posted on May 3, 2011by

“What would happen if the mature men and women of your church decided to hide the children and young people of your church in their hearts for a lifetime? What if each child had a lifelong prayer supporter, a lifetime cheerleader, a lifetime partner to call before walking out on a marriage or jumping out a window after a devastating financial loss? WHAT DIFFERENCE WOULD IT MAKE?” -Bobb Biehl

What if every person in a church had someone that asked them “What are your priorities?” and “How can I help?”

What if every person in a church had someone that had someone who had gone before us on the mountain of life, but who pause and extend a hand to help us along the way or who extend a safety line of love and affirmation that may keep us from falling off the mountain?

What if every person in a church had someone that said, “I love you, I believe in you, I want to help you succeed. I want to make my experience and resources available to help you in any way I can to become all that God wants you to be?”

What if everyone had someone that was trying to help them reach their God-given potential?

How would that effect the church today?!
