Get Coffee... Share A Verse... Make A Difference

     My life has been a little hectic these past couple of weeks (you may have noticed considering my last post is going on 2 weeks old).  I've been doing many exciting things and making memories I'll cherish for a lifetime.  But in the mess of all the non-stop "going"... I think there are times where we (and I mean me, included) need to pause and take a moment to find time for someone else.  I'm sure Jesus Christ is busy listening to the billions of prayers headed His direction, but He always makes time and never fails to hear each one.  So I wanted to take a moment, share this special reminder with you all, and encourage you to join in! 


     Many of us will rush out the door tomorrow on our way to work, or the babysitters, or maybe even just to do some shopping.  And at some point during the day, most of us will stop by a drive-thru, whether it be for morning coffee, or our lunch break or even for an afternoon ice cream cone.  So I'm challenging you: in the rush of your busy day tomorrow, take time to make a difference in the life of someone else by joining Christian radio Way FM's "Drive-Thru Difference" movement.  Here's how it works....
  • PRINT out this note explaining why you did what you did in the drive-thru.
  • VISIT a local restaurant or coffee place (with a drive-thru)
  • ORDER your food/drink and then, when you pull around to the window, offer to...
  • PAY for the car behind you.
  • GIVE the drive-thru employee the note you printed out asking them to pass it along on your behalf.
  • THANK God you were given a chance to touch a life.

     One thing I like to do is add a favorite Bible verse to the note, such as John 3:16 or Philippians 4:13.  It's a personal touch that could open a door to God's word or bless the heart of a person in need of encouragement.   And who knows-- this simple act of kindness and love could impact someone and point them to Jesus.
      So I challenge you-- take the time to let your light shine and make a difference!  Remember, every act of kindness really does make a difference in this big ole' world!

~ Share the faith everyone.
