refreshing jesus.

This week i was refreshed, through a wonderful role model, friend and confidant . On Friday i got a phone call from Leanne Cripps, which was a huge deal. I was in need of a little bit of hope, and thats exactly what God gave me.
I know that it doesnt seem like a huge thing, but i asked for refreshment, hope, a little bit of light, and the phone rang, and on the other side of the phone , was my answer to prayer.
Hearing from Leanne, and two of my favorite girls, was a gift in itself. And it made me wonder why we as Christians don't pick up the phone more often.
Its funny, how we forget that sometimes all it takes is a phone call, an email, a text message, a little note in a mail box, to reach out to someone, who is looking for a little bit of light.
When someone looks like they've had a rough week, when they miss church on sunday, or are quieter than usual, or even if they put on a smile, that could fool the world, we are the ones that need to reach out.
To be the hope that they need in a time of hardship.
Pick up the phone, take five minutes to write an email , send them a text message, and tell them you are praying for them.
Its that simple.

Is that not what God intended? Community all the time?
