When I meet Christians who are part of a church or a group it is hard to establish a relationship with them. They are either overwhelmingly intrusive or do not want to know you. Outta sight outta mind. However if they need something like money or your time, they will know how to reach you. I find it hypocritical and hurtful. My father was sick and lonely and died recently. No one from the church in Australia came to visit or call him. They didn't care. When he passed they came out of the woodwork like worms. My father had been in Australia for the last 29.5 years.
I hope God will take away from me this bitterness and sadness and hurt. That God will love me so much that this pain will go away.
Note to Christians: Please remember to say hello to someone you don't know. Come out of your comfort zone and remember that person. Don't use excuses like your family or a busy schedule to ignore someone. You never know how you will bring joy or save someone. And don't just do it once or twice but again and again. You don't see them around, ask about them and call them, pay them a visit - get to know them. You see a stranger in your midst, talk to them and show in your actions that the God of Israel, Jacob, Abraham and your heart, cares and loves them also. There is a verse in the New Testatement (Phillipians I think) that says think of noble things but also to do them. So do it and give Glory to our Mighty and loving God. Ask the Holy Spirit to inject you with wisdom so that you will work in His might and wonder.
Blessings to all of you
