How often do we look at our church or

00:02.159 --> 00:04.240
community and think someone should

00:04.240 --> 00:06.960
really do something about that? We see

00:06.960 --> 00:10.000
needs, identify gaps, and wait for them

00:10.000 --> 00:12.160
to step forward.

00:12.160 --> 00:14.240
But what if God is whispering something

00:14.240 --> 00:17.119
different? What if in his divine plan,

00:17.119 --> 00:19.520
you are the they you've been waiting for

00:19.520 --> 00:22.320
all along?

00:22.320 --> 00:25.840
Ephesians 4:16 reminds us, "From him the

00:25.840 --> 00:28.480
whole body, joined and held together by

00:28.480 --> 00:31.039
every supporting ligament, grows and

00:31.039 --> 00:34.000
builds itself up in love as each part

00:34.000 --> 00:37.280
does its work. Every one of us is vital

00:37.280 --> 00:40.239
to the body of Christ. God doesn't just

00:40.239 --> 00:43.120
call some to serve. He equipss and

00:43.120 --> 00:45.760
empowers all.

00:45.760 --> 00:48.320
He often calls us to start what we wish

00:48.320 --> 00:50.719
already existed. That burden on your

00:50.719 --> 00:53.280
heart, that idea for ministry, it might

00:53.280 --> 00:56.719
be God's invitation for you to begin.

00:56.719 --> 00:58.879
Take a moment for reflection. Where

00:58.879 --> 01:01.440
might God be gently nudging you, saying,

01:01.440 --> 01:04.478
"You're it. Start serving here. Embrace

01:04.479 --> 01:09.479
that call. Step up. You are the they.
