The Importance of Being There

Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.—Galatians 6:2 NKJV
Do you feel overwhelmed by what is going on today— the problems that so many face either in your own family, your neighborhood, or the world? Ask God to show you where you are needed most. Make a list of places where you can volunteer and pray for guidance on where to help.
Heavenly Father, make me bold in service for You.
