This Is Your Home

By: Thom Perkins

Some folks are coming to your home this week for a visit!   How will you treat them?   Will you welcome them, let them know you are glad they came by, offer them a drink or perhaps something to eat (especially if you are Italian!), ask them how they are doing?


Or, will you pretend that you do not notice they are there, yet somehow hope they will return again for another visit?

To most of us, Sojourn is our HOME.    When someone new comes into our gathering, do we make them feel welcome in our home?

Jesus said that in the last days "the love of many will grow cold." (Matt 24:12)   I pray this could never be said of Sojourn as a body! Rather, that we would be the hands and feet of Jesus, and all who God brings into our midst would sense the genuine love of Jesus through each one of us!

I would like to offer you a challenge--Each Sunday, reach out to ONE person you have not talked to before and see if God does not use you to BLESS that person...and you will receive a blessing as well!

Remember, THIS IS YOUR HOME (these will be our code words on Sundays)!
