Out Casts

This is a very convicting thing to write so it will most likely be short and to the point but i feel as tho the lord wants it to be out there again. All throughout jesus ministry we see him ministering to people who are theses people? the broken and the outcast the lord really built his army out of the people no one wanted and no one liked. (i am not going to go into examples, feel free to dig it up yourself) now i have found in my life that these people seem to end up around me now that sounds haughty and arrogant but please let me finish. i have found all thru my life as i looked back in prayer tonight the lord has always placed me near people who are broken or need his love ( i am not perfect i need his love too) but he has always placed me near these people and i would push them away cause they are not the (cool kids) or whatever image the world has tried to put on them. and the lord really asked me tonight how many have you passed by that could have been the next paul?     so to stop my rambling it feels like. i believe the lord just really wants to encourage us to reach out to the homeless person or the "weird kid" in school. to the broken who really need christ.         because these people have the greatest potential because its only once you have lost everything that your free to do anything. so reach out to those who are on there last limb and dont fit into the "christian" picture frame.   as always thanks for reading please let me know what you think. and                        God Bless

Jesus never hung out with the popular crowd either!
