Tuesday Truth:
It’s easy to notice who’s at church. But do we notice who isn’t?
Jesus told about a shepherd who had one hundred sheep and realized one was missing. Ninety-nine were still there, but one mattered enough to go looking.
“What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine… and go after that which is lost?” (Luke 15:4, KJV)
Caring for people isn’t only the pastor’s job. We are the body of Christ, and we’re supposed to care for one another.
Maybe someone hasn’t been around lately. Maybe they’re struggling. Maybe they’re discouraged. Maybe life simply got hard.
You don’t need a title to reach out.
Send the text. Make the call. Ask, “Are you okay?” And mean it.
Sometimes ministry looks like preaching to a crowd.
Sometimes it looks like noticing one person is missing.
Be the kind of church family that notices. ❤️
