Have you ever had someone “pay it forward” for you? — Food, coffee, etc? It’s an amazing feeling knowing a stranger, out of the goodness of their heart, decided to make your day; even better…it also inspires you to pay it forward to someone else.
What if we lived life in this way. More than gifting just a coffee, but in regards to someone’s faith or salvation?
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 4:10-11
Jesus gave us the ultimate gift, He died for our freedom because of the goodness in His heart to love.
Each of us have also been gifted something very special. Maybe it’s your testimony in how you came to know God. Maybe it’s how God radically transformed your life in the trenches. Maybe it’s your heart to love and serve well.
The greatest thing we can do with the gifts and blessings that we reap is to be on a “pay it forward mission”. Live out the gospel in such a way that inspires others to faithfully go out and plant their own seeds for The Kingdom to one day reap…and repeat.
