City welcomes Freebird, The Ultimate Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute LIVE at Patriots Park, Saturday, June 3 FREEBIRD, THE ULTIMATE LYNYRD SKYNYRD TRIBUTE (5th & Final Part of "The Invitation" Series) Sometimes while driving to work in the mornings I listen to the radio station. One day while driving, I heard a story that really touched my heart. It was about a 12 year- old boy who found out about some children who had lost everything in a fire. Compassion overtook him to the point that he gave every toy and piece of clothing he had, even the shoes he was wearing. His mother asked him why he had so many bags of things to give away. He replied, "Mom, I have everything and these kids have nothing." Wow! What a big heart this young man has! I believe that he tapped into a biblical, spiritual principle of the early church. Acts 4:32- 35 (NLT) says, "All the believers were united in heart and mind. And they felt that what they owned was not their own, so they shared everything they had. The apostles testified powerfully to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and God's great blessing was upon them all. There were no needy peo- ple among them, because those who owned land or houses would sell them and bring the money to the apostles to give to those in need." EVERYTHING COUNTS If we compare ourselves with other people, it can hinder us from giving what we have to offer because we think that we don't have enough or that we are inadequate. However, all of us have something of value to give to others that can benefit them and bring them joy. For example, you may be good at cooking, while someone else can buy a meal for someone; both acts of kindness benefited the person. Maybe someone can put $200 dollars in a card, but you only have $20 dollars. As long as you are a cheerful giver, and you give from your heart what you have, you will find that your life will be filled with so much happiness. As you serve and lend a hand to others with your time, talent, and treasures – you become God's hands extended in the earth. 2 Corin- thians 8:12 (NLT) states, "Whatever you give is acceptable if you give it eagerly. And give according to what you have, not what you don't have." PRAY THIS PRAYER: "Lord, Your word says that If we, being evil, know how to give good gifts to our children, how much more will you, our Father who is in heaven, give what is good to those of us who ask! I thank and praise you for being the ultimate giver. Father, you are the greatest giver because you gave your one and only son; whoever believes in him won't perish, but will have everlasting life. Forgive me for sometimes being self-centered, thinking about what I want to receive instead of what I can give. Forgive me for complaining about what I don't have. Help me to remember that you have invited me to give with a cheerful heart. May I find great joy in being a blessing to people and glorifying your holy name. In Jesus' name I pray – Amen."
