WILLING BUT WEARY!

Have you ever met a mixed up person seeking help and asking for yours, or received a call from an aquaintance saying, " Hey, I have a friend in trouble and because you have experience in prayers, I was wondering if you could help."

You answer immediately, offer compassion to that person in need or answer the aquaintance, "sure, would love to help someone in need, just give them my number, get them to call me and we will go from there."

You start helping with prayers and get your pastors and group leaders involved, give compassionate calls and visits, or you get the call and help with prayers as much as you can with a prayer chain going. Then wham, the person turns on you like a blazing fire that's been hit with gallons of petrol. You are verbally attacked and get continuous calls from this person threatening to commit suicide and other crazy things if you don't get them the help they need. Phew, its a tough one and I've been there.

However, I say phew but at the end of the day, we need not worry if we ask Jesus into our space every day. If we pray to Him and ask for the covering of His blood, He will protect us for as long as we obey His will and thank Him for being with us.

So do not fear with your loving God so near and if you feel weary, call on Him.
