Alongside

It's a few minutes before 8 o'clock in the evening as I write this. Someone will stop by (in just a few minutes I think) who needs help. I don't know really anything about the person or the situation. We'll pray and see what we can do.

This is not unusual for us. Our specialty is "coming alongside" people who are in need. We do it a lot.

It's part of what makes us "dangerous" for God -- shining Jesus' light in the darkness.

It doesn't make us particularly popular. There's little glamor to be had in spending time with people who don't know where to turn. It's often messy. Sometimes we feel like what we do doesn't make a big difference. God has called us to it though, so we hang in. Often for a long time.

Please pray for us and support us as you can.  Go to www.crossroadscokato.com to learn more.
