Be a disco ball

Disco balls are just thousands of broken pieces of glass put together again to make a magical instant party.

Be a disco ball and shine for others despite your flaws and brokenness.

The world needs more joy, love, celebration now than than ever before.

It’s never too late to make a difference.

One seed harvests hundreds of fruit in one season alone.

Luke 17:6 says:

“And the Lord said, “If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.”

One person can make a difference- one idea, can shift everything.

A couple in Brazil planted 2 million trees to replant an entire forest- no media, no press- just passion and heart.

You keep shining for the sake of becoming a beautiful and flawed light-bringing love, laughter and celebration- despite your mistakes, your past, or your brokenness.

Hebrews 4:15 says:

“For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin.

16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”

The world needs your heart. It needs your story. It needs your scars.

Revelation 12:11 states:

“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”

How can you shine out today in your workplace/ your school/ your family?

Sharing Jesus without Fear: 5 Questions to ask first

Sharing Jesus Without Fear: Three steps in sharing your faith and guiding a lost person to Jesus. 1. Ask a series of five questions that will help you discover the personal spiritual condition. • Do you have any kind of spiritual belief? • To you, who is Jesus? • Do you think there is a heaven and a hell? • If you died right now, where would you go? • If what you believe were not true, would you want to know it? Listen to their answers in a calm and open way. 2. Here are a series of Bible verses to ask the lost person to read aloud. Use your phone or give them a Bible if they do not have one already. • Romans 3:23 • Romans 6:23 • John 3:3 • John 14:6 • Romans 10:9-11 • Revelation 3:20 3. Ask them a series of five questions that summarizes the truth of the verses and lead the lost person to the point of decision. • Are you a sinner? • Do you want forgiveness for your sins? • Do you believe Jesus died on the cross for you and rose again? • Are you willing to surrender yourself to Christ? • Are you ready to invite Jesus into your heart and into your life? 4. Lead them in the Sinner's Prayer if they are ready to make a decision for Christ. Invite them over to have coffee and get discipled or connect them with a local fellowship or small group for future growth or development.

Don’t give up

Life is full of dead ends- or what you think are dead ends-

Step back and see that it might be just a obstacle to your goal and not the end -

Even your little child-self could solve any maze- see the bird’s view and hop around it- solve it backwards, climb through it, or even ask for help.

Sometimes life is like that- you might not see the way at first- it seems blocked.

Think of it in a new way- climb over it with the help of others, turn it upside down and see it from a different perspective.

Get help with it- be creative with it.

There is no impossibilities that can’t eventually be solved. It might take practice, discipline, teamwork, years of brainstorming- but it can be done.

So when life gives you dead ends- don’t give up- solve it a new way- try another door- knock down a wall- whatever it takes to get through.

That’s the difference between dreamers and doers.
