Deliver the Mail

Scripture
Like the cold of snow in time of harvest is a faithful messenger to those who send him, for he refreshes the soul of his masters.
(Proverbs 25:13)
Devotional
And that is just what you and I are to be, faithful messengers. Each of us has a message to deliver. Maybe your message is a message of hope to a needy soul. Some are gifted to deliver the message of eternal life, which is found in Christ. Others have the instructions for prosperity, others for joy or peace. No matter what our calling or giftedness, we are to be heaven’s mail carriers. We are to bring the good news of the gospel to every willing recipient. Just think, our obedience in delivering the mail brings refreshment to the Lord God. What is it that you know? What information do you have that can bring others hope? Share what you know. Never hold back because of inordinate fear or prideful shyness. Deliver the mail boldly, unashamedly. You and I have the information that is needed. You have a special delivery that someone is waiting for.
