Reach, Touch, Every Kindess and Loving Service
God can do anything, you know - far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. Ephesians 3:20
The following is from the book The Shack and was shared in an entry by a man who pulled this for us to read because he deeply has this heart for others. It will definitely be my next book. And it is for anyone that has a heart for a 'new revolution' and understands 'the call to follow Him' and 'chooses to go'. To leave everything and take nothing but the message of Christ's love. What an awesome walk!

"Mack, if anything matters, then everything matters. Because you are so important to me, everything you do is important. Every time you forgive, everything changes; every time you reach out and touch a heart or a life, the world changes; with every kindness shown and loving service done, seen or unseen, my purposes are accomplished and nothing will ever be the same again."
"If you ever get a chance to hang out with Mack, you will soon learn that he's hoping and living for a new revolution, one of love and kindness - a revolution that revolves around Jesus and what he did for us all and what he continues to do in anyone who has a hunger for reconciliation and a place to call home (THAT WOULD BE A BIG AMEN!). This is not a revolution that will overthrow anyone or anything external, or if it does, it will do so in ways we could never contrive in advance. Instead it will be the quiet daily powers of dying and serving and loving and laughing, of simple tenderness and unseen kindnesses, because if anything matters, then everything matters."

Oh if we could really see!!!! Hoping for a new revolution.
