times are changing

I am old enough to remember Bob Dylan singing ‘the times they are a changing.’  Perhaps this should be a theme song in the Church of Jesus Christ.  I have been wrestling with how to reach those who do not have a relationship with Jesus.  It seems that many of our old ways of doing business just are not working.  It is no longer a good outreach to plan a program and ask others to come to it.  The Church needs to go out into the world and touch people’s lives where they live.  I am not sure how to do this exactly.  But I am wrestling with it and asking God to use me in some small way to touch lives for Him.  In fact I have started to pray daily that God will send people into my path that I can show God’s love.  As I meet them (and I do) I am asking God to help me listen and learn and share God’s love in appropiate ways.  The times are changing but God’s love remains the same.  He loves the world and what a thought that is.  It has touched my life and made a world of difference.  I pray other lives will be touched by God’s love, too.
