Today’s Thought “Beyond My Scope” G. Ward

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” G. Ward

The society to which we reside in has many social variances, but all offer a plethora of choices. Contrasting economic positions given Americans have many longing for more, shedding credence to their many complaints. While so many won’t eat leftovers, some in Calcutta just want a morsel of food. Other struggles in what to wear, while children in Haiti miss school again because of lack in tuition fees and uniform costs.

A common message for past generations (given by authoritarians unto young people) demanded recall of the less fortunate, disabling pretentious behaviors. Our Dad’s reference was the suffering that occurred in Timbuktu. Those National Geographic visuals of those living in abject poverty would always surface. Perhaps one of your parents utilized similar references? Let’s re-invite people (regardless of age) towards absolute recall unto a Gracious God who cares to re-shape not only our scope, but even that of Timbuktu.

Happy Monday!
