Nehemiah 3

Action Needed

Nehemiah 3:1-5 Eliashib the high priest and his fellow priests went to work and rebuilt the Sheep Gate. They dedicated it and set its doors in place, building as far as the Tower of the Hundred, which they dedicated, and as far as the Tower of Hananel. 2 The men of Jericho built the adjoining section, and Zakkur son of Imri built next to them.

Nehemiah 3:1-5 3 The Fish Gate was rebuilt by the sons of Hassenaah. They laid its beams and put its doors and bolts and bars in place. 4 Meremoth son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, repaired the next section. Next to him Meshullam son of Berekiah, the son of Meshezabel, made repairs, and next to him Zadok son of Baana also made repairs. 5 The next section was repaired by the men of Tekoa, but their nobles would not put their shoulders to the work under their supervisors.

Karla from Fagundes, Brazil The people from my church are very busy, I know it is not just here, people all over the world are getting much more busy than usual, We drift apart from each other and when you came, we found a way to show up. We got closer to each other. I realized that we can't let our friendships die and sometimes it is so easy to happen. We're stronger together.

Karla from Fagundes, Brazil One of the most important things "We had decisions for Christ" the week you were here. And that came as a result of "action". We Christians know how important is to spread the gospel, BUT knowledge is nothing without ACTION. And here’s my personal opinion "my church doesn't act very often"

Karla from Fagundes, Brazil We have a huge mission field in Fagundes, our church is 11 years old now and we’ve just planted one church in this time. And I know we can do much more. When you came that thought came to my mind: They came from so far away and they had decisions for Christ in just one week. We live here and we don't get that in one week"! And do you know why? Because we don't ACT.

Karla from Fagundes, Brazil I prayed about it! And I realize that was not easy for me to say. I started blaming myself saying " Karla you are doing nothing. Jesus will come soon and you are doing nothing." So now I am planning a project to do with the kids who live around that lake in the church's area. The goal is bring the parents to church through the kids. YOUR coming helped me to ACT.

Will I stay Stuck in Life or Will I Act?
