MY MUST NEEDS….

Sunday evening our Senior pastor, Barry Arnold, shared an inspiring message that has made me Think this week!  He used the scripture in John 4:4…where Jesus said,  ”I must needs go through Samaria…”. Let’s just say the Jews and Samaritans weren’t known for their friendship with each other! The Jews always went out of their way to AVOID going through Samaria! Jesus, knowing he himself was a Jew, probably wasn’t looking forward to it, (knowing that His peers may look down on him) but he knew God had something special for Him to DO in Samaria.  Sometimes we may put off what we know God wants us to do because we are afraid of what people may think of us… Do you ever do that??   Maybe God wants you to be kind to that girl in your class that isn’t so popular! Maybe you NEED to go out of your way to invite a “not so that” girl to your table to eat with you at lunch! Or maybe you NEED to invite the cute boy you’re intrested in to come to church with you! Just think of the neat things God may have in store for you when you go against the flow of what’s popular and do what you MUST NEEDS DO! Jesus was used in a powerful way once he went through Samaria! Many people ended up believing in Jesus as a result of Him talking to ONE LADY! ….. See the Domino affect?? We lead ONE person to Christ…. and how many more will then be affected? We will never know! But we MUST NEEDS TELL THEM and show God’s love to them!
