Our paster did an interesting take on the typical Hebrews 11 \u201chall of faith.\u201d He addressed an oft overlooked participant in the hall of faith: The People. I\u2019m not going to give you the whole sermon here, though you could go and watch it<\/a>. But he left us with this challenge: \u201cHow will your faith be a team sport this week?\u201d Based on Hebrews 10:23-24, he pointed out: \u201cLet us consider how we may spur on another on toward love and good deeds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generosity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the things I love about living my best life is generosity\u2014it is an important part of our Best-Life definition<\/a>. When there is a need, we, who are in that sweet spot of life, jump right in to fill it. I think of the meals my friends and I have brought when a loved one has died.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within our merry little band<\/a>, we have a current need. No one has died. Instead, two precious little girls have been born\u2014the twin granddaughters of one of my dearest friends: Peggy Norton<\/a>. Brynlee and Claire were born on Feb 22, 2023. Babies and Mamma are healthy, but Mamma was in labor for 28 hours and gave birth naturally. Needless to say, she\u2019ll have some recovery time.<\/p>\n\n\n

Peggy has asked for help from our merry little band. She introduced me to a new app that makes it easier for each of us to be part of \u201cTeam Faith\u201d\u2014spurring one another on toward love and good deeds. MealTrain<\/a>, makes it easy to sign up to provide a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I signed up for the next available date: March 1. I am going to do Spicy Chicken Casserole<\/a>. I reached out to my friends to see if someone wanted to join me in providing salad and\/or dessert. So many signed up that we had to start a new day, with new contributors. The family\u2019s likes and dislikes are provided at the site. For those who don\u2019t like to cook, but still want to help, MealTrain also offers an option for restaurant gift cards. Many of our group have made donations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I offered my friends this link<\/a> for many one dish supper options. Here\u2019s another one<\/a> I found that I bet would be popular with the family of 5 (two adults, two teens, and a three year old). I may be making it, too\u2014just later in the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tangible Gesture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

MealTrain is a tangible way we can all be a part of Team Faith as we spur on another on toward love and good deeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you hear of a need within your community of friends and family, please be generous. It is a part of what living our best life really means. MealTrain<\/a> is a modern tool that makes it easy for us to spur one another on to good deeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go Team Faith!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
