God wants us to be patient with people and wait for the manifestation of change in them.<\/p>\n<p>To do a little more is to do that one more thing that makes you look silly. To act in grace and give people a second chance. To give yourself a second chance when all others say you are down and out; when it looks like you have come to your wit&#8217;s end; when it appears like you have done all you can and yet you did not make it.<\/p>\n<p>Listen! We can and must do a little more! There are a lot of hurting people; broken, maimed and bound. It is time to step out there to show them love, mercy and grace. Compel them with a reason to live again. There are many who think nobody likes them. They already feel rejected; they don&#8217;t need any argument and reasoning other than love, grace, and mercy.<\/p>\n<p>I read an alarming statistics from WHO, that suicide is the second leading cause of death among persons 15-29 years old.<\/p>\n<p>The world needs the message of hope and love and grace now more than ever. We can do a little more by sharing. We can reach out with mercy and grace. We can lend a helping hand and do a little more.<\/p>\n<p>I pray that you will be willing to do just a little more.<\/p>\n<p>Stay blessed!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Today&#8217;s Prayer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Dear Father<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Help me do a little more to seek the lost; to win a brother who has offended me; while waiting for my labour and effort to bear fruits.
