When you look at this photo it shows three people together talking.  They are looking directly at each other and smiling.  That is a sign that you matter to someone when they will look you in the eye and smile.  It is what builds a relationship.  Life seems so busy these days and there are so many activities competing for our limited time; because of these facts when someone gives us the gift of their time, the gift has value.

I engaged with a famiiy in the last week that I had never met before.  Now through 3 ministry encounters I have a standing invitation to visit them anytime I want to.  I didn’t do anything that others would not have been capable of doing.  I was able to convey at the moments I was with them they were my priority.  Who has been your priority this week?  Have they felt your presence and responded to it?  Each day has opportunities to share of ourselves.  Let’s be joyful in sharing ourselves with others in meaningful ways!
