"All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had...There was no needy persons among them. for from time to time those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles feet, and it was distributed to anyone as he had need." Acts 4:32-35 (NIV)
So…. What do we learn from this scripture?
Being a follower of Jesus’ way, is all about helping each other out. Did you catch that? “No one was in need”… “They were all one”….
Well… I have a brother in need… a friend, mentor and ol’ pastor of mine name Eric and he is in need. He made the decision a year ago to sell everything he and his family had and headed to Tanzania, to serve in East Africa. He is doing amazing things there. He is changing East Africa with the message of Jesus. He is training pastors, bringing education to children, and offering clean drinking water to those in need…
So now he is need…
He needs…. an acoustic guitar.
Such a simple thing that is very difficult to obtain there.
We need to help.
Do you have an acoustic guitar, just sitting in your closet, being surrounded by more and more of your stuff… not being used… just taking up space? The people of East Africa need it, that guitar, in your closet can change lives.
We are also looking for donations. Have a piggy bank? Have some loose change? We will buy one if we need to!
Let’s help our brother in need. Let’s bring music to the people of East Africa. Let’s change the world, one life at a time!
