I had posted several photos of our ministry volunteers, expressing appreciation for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I reposted it, thinking that it would make each one of them smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A little while later, my wife asked me, &#8220;Have you checked on Robert?&#8221; &#8220;What about Cynthia?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I honestly told her it had been a little while since I had checked on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Solomon reminds us to&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKnow well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u202d\u202dProverbs\u202c \u202d27:23\u202c \u202d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, this applies to shepherds looking after sheep and can be applied to a Pastor and his flock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, each one of us has a circle of family, friends and acquaintances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes the Lord brings someone to your mind. It may be that He wants you to reach out to them. Perhaps they are having a bad day, and need a prayer spoken, a need met, or a kind word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Proverbs 16:24 reminds us that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your kind words might be just what the doctor ordered!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recently, I drove down a road where a hospice patient of mine had lived. I thought of his widow and wondered how she was doing. But, the thought soon left my mind, as my mind was preoccupied, driving to my next destination.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few weeks later, she died. I regret that I didn&#8217;t check on her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OK, no more excuses!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After I write this, I will reach out to the folks I haven&#8217;t talked to in awhile as God directs me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Who&#8217;s with me?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Know the Condition of Your Flock \u201cKnow well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds,\u201d \u202d\u202dProverbs\u202c \u202d27:23\u202c \u202d Looking at Facebook memories this morning, I came across a post from a year ago.
