Be a Gospel Giver

• Take the initiative to contact and pray with a friend (hairdresser, server, etc.) who needs a blessing. Share the gospel as appropriate. Consider pre-paying for services to help them along.
• Give financial gifts to those in your circle from your personal funds. Send gifts digitally through apps like VENMO.
• Continue to give to the local church and ministries you support. For those who fundraise their support, these are uncertain times. Your gift is a beautiful way to encourage them.

One day we will all gather in groups, visit homes and embrace one another. Why not start dreaming now about ways to engage with those whom you have formed or renewed relationships? With hard days ahead, this may feel strange, but one day things will be different and we want to be ready.

When will this happen? Thankfully, God knows. He is sovereign, holds us in the palm of His hand, and remains faithful. He is a keeper of promises. Until the time we can gather, we can hold firm to His promises, pray for His intervention, and lift up those who are far from God or not believers. Dream big! Our God is the God who gives more than we can ever hope or imagine.
