My Case Worker

Why I really like my case worker and why I am so thankful for his example.
You know most of us as Americans have a million and one excuses as to why we simply cannot do what God calls us to do. I remember back when I was a kid feeling the call to missions and listening to people say "oh don't ever pray God will use you, He might send you to Africa" Really? Hmmmm, He might just send you to your neighbor or a neighborhood down the street that everyone has forgotten about or is too afraid to go to.
Let me tell you about my case worker. He is a wonderful guy that is dedicated to helping the children of Tennessee! He works and works. He knows his job will never be done until Jesus returns but that does not stop him. He carries FOUR cell phones at one time! He is always there to answer my hundreds of questions and is very patient with me. I had (have) a big learning curve. He loves the children he serves and he loves Jesus!
Here is one more thing that would probably surprise you about my case worker, he is a quadriplegic. Yup! That does not stop him from serving the Lord and the children. He requires a wheel-chair---and help with pretty much everything. But you know what? He's doing it! Wow! If that does not inspire you I don't know what will. So really, what is your excuse? Has God called you into the neighborhoods of your city that need Jesus. Has he called you to "know" your neighbor? Do you even know your neighbors name? There are a lot of scriptures about serving and loving your neighbor in the Bible. I'll let you take the time to look them up. It'll be fun! I promise. So GO! Introduce yourself to your neighbor. Take it a step further and bring them cookies, dinner, or even a bouquet of flowers from your yard. You will be blessed as you bless others.
