I was interviewed by a college senior last week for one of his classes. He’s a ministry major and one of the questions he had to ask was what would you tell someone going into the ministry. A former youth pastor had told him, “Run as far as you can in the opposite direction.” I get that answer. There are days we want to quit and run like Forrest Gump but running from God is never right, ask Jonah.
Luke 18:1, “And He (Jesus) spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint (lose heart).”

In his book, Mister Rogers Parenting Book, Fred Rogers wrote “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping,’” It is during these uncertain times that helpers are needed most. The world looks to them for wisdom, kind words, inspiration, and a sense of safety and security. They are the doctors, nurses, and paramedics, working on the front lines of a pandemic. The police officers, firefighters, and first responders working to keep citizens safe. The cashiers, restaurant workers, and the delivery drivers working to maintain a sense of normalcy. However, there are also those who work behind the scenes, see the beauty in the little things, and want to share those little things with a city they love.
