Still Working
March 21, 2014
Read: Matthew 25:14-21
Vivian and Don are in their mid-90s and have been married more than 70 years. Recently Vivian suffered a setback when she broke her hip. This has been additionally difficult because for several years both Don and Vivian have been saddened by the realization that they are no longer strong enough to be active in the life and work of their church.
However, Vivian and Don are still hard at work for the Lord: They are prayer warriors. While they may not always be physically present and visible in the life of their church, they are faithful behind the scenes in their service for Him.
The parable of the talents in Matthew 25 reminds us that we must use the talents God has given us wisely. All of us have God-given skills and abilities at various levelsand we must not bury, unused, what God has given us.
It is not only in our years of strength that God will use us, but also in our youth and age, as well as in our sickness and weakness. Vivian and Don continue to serve by praying. And like them, we honor our Savior by using our skillseach according to his own ability (v.15) to serve Him who is worthy.
Lord, You have done so much for me. Please show
me what I can do to serve Youto honor You with
the abilities You have provided. May my life be a
living sacrifice of love and action for Your honor.
God can use you at any ageif you are willing.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Great thread!
"Goodbye Stranger" by Supertramp has to be one of the top songs in this group.
