WHY? Does quoting relevant scripture send the 2x2;s into sometimes a nasty response??

Isn't it fantastic. The local churches here have set up the sunday service on line. The messages,singing,prayer,news and notices. We used to think how wonderful it was to have hi-volume on the phone su as the homebounds could listen in. Now we have it visual.There are still those who have taken communion to the unwell. After the Service we have all those little squares com up,we call it coffee time,this is where we chat to each other,face to face. We hope that these restrictions/lockdowns are over soon.. But this active church has made me understand what Romans 12 means,all the active gifts within the body of Christ set into place,but reminding us not to overlook our own talents Magpie

“Communication between People is like oxygen to life – without it…it dies.”
When you're feeling hurt, scared, lonely, or insecure,you are able to share this with other People in an authentic and non-blaming way.

Thank you for your many helpful posts , Redback . This morning , a young man who is somewhat shy and unique in some ways , told me he has been feeling a strong calling to “just be a friend to people “. He said , I’m not so good at “talking “ , but I can be a friend . He spends time in “the bush “ with trappers and people that would not always “fit” in with “the crowd” . I reminded him about the quote “preach always , and if necessary use words “ Alvin

+Slowtosee and Redback. Thanks,we have a wonderful neighbor,he was worried he was not easy talking in groups,even in prayer and verse reading. George,you have never wasted one minute in serving the Church and others. Repairing building making without financial gain,you have done much of this for people outside the church.. You have not neglected your God given gift.A couple of days later he thanked me,as he never thought practical gifts and spiritual gifts were just as important and needed amongst the Body of Christ (Church)as well as serving the needy in the wider community,,,,,Magpie
