We have been in Colorado for five weeks. In that time we have lived in four homes. Two of the home we occupied when the owners were on travel. Our current accommodations are in a second house that has been dedicated for people who come to Loveland doing missions work.
In every case, the people we have met, either prior to moving in or after they returned from their trip, have shown a love and deep concern for others. Not just people they know, but friends they have not met yet. A place has been carved out for us to stay, meals have been prepared for us and food is available for our use. Their home is open for our use with no concern for the security of their belongings.
What is the common element found in these people? They have become children of God and they are serious about following Him. If you asked them, I am sure they would not claim to be doing anything special. They are just doing what they can. If you ask me, I will say I have seen the actions of Jesus in these normal people.
I want to be just like the people I have met in the last five weeks.
