“But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.” Matthew 6:3 (NKJV)
Some people believe that their convictions are the solution to every sickness and disease that inflects society. They forget that imperfection is part of our sinful nature and that we are living in a world torn apart by sin.
It is impossible to create a different world without different people. It is useless to try to reform others if your relationship with God is not right. The best place to start healing this world is within yourself. Kneel down and ask God to start a revival within you. When we live in harmony with God, it is possible to influence others because Jesus said, “For indeed, the Kingdom of God is within you.”
We have to become aware of God’s Kingdom first and allow it to govern our lives. Then it will be revealed in our character, attitude, and deeds causing a ripple effect that will touch others.
Jesus will positively influence that part of His vineyard, where He placed you, to represent His Kingdom.
God Bless, Pastor Rick
