Today’s Topic: Are You Ready?

Today’s Text:  Isaiah 56:8 (ESV)  The Lord GOD, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, declares, “I will gather yet others to him besides those already gathered.”

(NOTE:  While these thoughts may apply to you who do not attend Calvary, they are primarily designed for the people who do.)

Are you ready?

They’re coming.

God has promised to bring them.

Are you ready?

Are you prepared to expand the boundaries of your comfort zones?

Are you excited to weave new people into the fabric of your life?

Are you intentionally looking for new people to whom you can connect?

Are you ready?

Are you preparing yourself to resist the natural urge to stick to what and whom you know?

Are you encouraging your family and friends to consider the feelings of the new people God brings and  ease their fears by becoming their friend?

Are you ready?

They’re coming.

God has promised to bring them.

They are looking for a place to connect to God.

They need a connection to God’s people.

They need a connection to YOU!!!!!

Are you ready to be the people we have been appointed to be and join Jesus Christ in connecting people to God?
