A Cup of Cold Water

Nepal and India 142 And if you give even a cup of cold water to one of the least of my followers, you will surely be rewarded. Matthew 10:42

Because Jesus was a man who knew labor as a carpenter, He understood the value of a cup of water offered.

A cup of cold water means: I have been watching you work and see your value as well as your need.

A cup of cold water means, I have spent the time and effort to draw fresh water from the well, not just what has been sitting in a jar.

A cup of cold water is something clean and pure in the midst of a world that is dusty and polluted.

A cup of cold water is a moment of hope that will carry you through.

Our heart can be given in a cup of cold water and the Lord will repay because He treasures every life!

Missions in our Back Yard

Our Bhutanese friend is so proud of the sunflowers that surround their home. Our city is rapidly filling with refugee people coming to find a new life here. All our lives we have been told that the mission field begins just outside the doors of the church. How true it has become!

But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?  And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!”[ Romans 10:14-15
