“No one lights a lamp and puts it under a bowl or under a bed. A lamp is always put on a lamp stand, so that people who come into a house will see the light.” Luke 8:16
Pam was filled with expectation as she joined the choir of her new church. “At last” she thought, “new friends to look forward to!”
The first week she was totally ignored. The second week; the third week …same thing. No one spoke to her. It was depressing and she thought, “Maybe I should quit now and forget it!”
But as Pam prayed and told God how she felt the Lord impressed upon her to “take the first step to reach out in friendship to the other members of the choir“. Talk about a scary thought! Pam was convinced no one would respond. But she gathered up her courage and guess what? It worked!
Pam took that first step and discovered a whole room full of people anxious to talk with her!
Go ahead, my friend, make yourself friendly. Reach out. Take that first step!
