Someone should do something about this

Have you ever read a passage of Scripture or heard a sermon—and it just stays with you? This past Sunday’s lesson at Church of the City Franklin, where Joe and I attend, was that kind of lesson for me.

One of the phrases Darren repeated in this lesson was, “Someone should do something about this.” Meaning when you see a particular situation and you keep having this recurring thought, “Someone should do something about this,” perhaps God is nudging you to be the person to act.

Esther is a woman I’ve long admired and that I look forward to meeting in person one day. To hear from her own lips what she experienced, to learn what was in her thoughts when she approached the king, planned those banquets, when she stepped out in faith and trusted the Living God—no matter how the situation turned out for her personally.

If you have some time this week (and I’d encourage you to make some), either watch or listen to this message about Esther. I don’t know about you but I never tire of being reminded about the providence of God.

You likely already know this, but God is never mentioned in the book of Esther, yet he’s ever present and active at every turn.

Do you have a lesson, podcast, sermon, etc… that you’ve watched or listened to lately that has stayed with you? That’s still resonating with eternal truth from God? If yes, please share the link with us so we can be encouraged and challenged along with you.

And yes, God is nudging me to take a step into a ministry that’s long been on my heart. It’s called the Wrap Around Ministry, which comes alongside foster families to give them the additional support they need. I shared the idea with our COTC community group Sunday night and they’re “all in!” Talk about excited. More on that as this opportunity takes shape.

I’m still neck deep in final rewrites of my next book. It’s going well but gracious, the story has certainly grown! I love it when a story does that, but oy, the words are piling up and I need to wrap things up. Pronto!

To that end…

Much love from my corner of Nashville,

Tammy
