I remember their names. I see their faces. I heard them as they told me their problems.

What can I do for them? Provide a moment's comfort? A meal? A kind word? A listening ear? I can't help but think that it's not much in the big scheme of things.

What can one visit do? One prayer? Perhaps it's more for us than the people we spoke to?

God can work through anything. Many times, even the un-intentions of man are used in the direct intentions of God (He's just cool that way). And I believe that, as our local missions team ministered to people at 3rd Street Promenade last night, God can do amazing things with whatever seeds were planted.

But I know we're called to do more than just make a one time visit...

God says for us to love Him and to love our neighbors. We know what it means to love Him, but what does loving our neighbors look like? Who is my neighbor? And how does love manifest itself in action?

I think I have more questions than answers these days. And I realize that as soon as I answer one, I'll get another. And then another.

But I guess I don't completely mind all that...
