You know during this holiday season,, we should take a
little lesson from our local UPS delivery man..
For the next 5 weeks or more,,every morning they
will head into work, find their trucks loaded to the brim
with packages...
Packages from well wisher..
Something some one saw that they just know the person
they were sending it to would just love it...
Something that they thought that person shouldn't live without....
And with a smile and happy heart,,
this UPS man comes to your door and gives you a
gift.. You smile with excitement to receive it ,
Cant wait to see what it is , wandering if it something
you always longed for..
We should be just as excited and more about sharing the
gift of eternal life.. The gift of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Do you know someone who needs to know God?
Do you know someone who needs to have Hope in their
life?
Do you know someone that unless you share the gift of
the Lord with them, they may never enter into the
kingdom of heaven ?
Romand 10 :14 -15
How can they believe in the one of whom they have not
heard ?And how can they hear without someone preaching
to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent?
How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news !
Come on all you Followers of Christ... Get excited about the
Good News.. You have been called to make a differernce in
your neighbors life.
1 person ~~ (some one who needs to know the Lord)
1 package~~ ( Tell them of the Love that God has for THEM)
1 delivery ~~ (Share that moment of excitement in what they
are about to recieve, that will change their lives)
Take this Holiday Season and become your own verson
of the UPS man.. Share the Gift...
Based on our service at First Church of God today..

Beautiful salvation post, Karen, great analogy with the UPS man. This went along with our message at church today of challenging us to bring the Good News to those around us. Thanks for sharing.

Sharing "The GIFT" with you at every opportunity that the Lord opens up. I'm praying for a holy boldness this year that started way back in the early summer - to give out Gospels of John. Now I pray for those who received them! God will do the work in those hearts to bring them to Himself.

Ever since my son was little, the UPS delivery man has been a big deal around our place, esp. right before the holidays...and now, with this wonderful "parable of the UPS man", deliveries around our house will be even more special for the reminder that each delivery will bring of the ultimate gift that has been given to us to share! Thanks, Karen!
Will never look at the UPS man the same again! (And I almost worked for UPS once. Chose Fed Express instead.)
