When Was It?
By: Edd Sterchi
- When was the last time you texted or called me and asked how I was doing?
- When was the last time you gave me an encouraging pat on the back?
- When was the last time you saw that I was lonely and sat by me in services?
- When was the last time you had me over to your house just to visit?
- When was the last time you offered to do something for me just to help out?
- When was the last time you mentioned Jesus to me?
- When was the last time you spent a little extra time with me just to make me feel special?
- When was the last time you sent an uplifting note in the mail?
- When was the last time you asked to study the Bible with me?
Who am I? I am the person with whom you worship. I am your neighbor. I am your relative. I am your friend. I am the person next to you at work. I am sometimes in need of something, and I may never dream of asking you, but I am always glad when you’re there for me.
