Go out of your way to proactively serve somebody today to whom you would not normally show generosity.

Right now, spend a few moments in prayer asking God, in your own words, for a greater appreciation of evangelism & service in your relationship with him. Say honestly how you feel about the sharing style.
Be sure to leave yourself a moment when you've finished to see if God brings anything to your mind about the topic.
Note down anything you sense during this time.
Ich würde dir gerne mitteilen, wieso ich jeden Morgen um 5 Uhr auf dieser Veranda sitze und wieso das so eine reiche Erfahrung für mich ist. Der erste Grund ist, dass meine Kinder sicher in ihren Betten liegen und mich nicht unterbrechen können. Aber wieso mag ich es hier raus zukommen. Daran möchte ich dich ein bisschen teilhaben lassen.
I'd like to share with you a bit about why I sit on this verandah each morning at about 5 o'clock and why that is such a rich experience for me. The first reason is that my children are tucked safely in their beds and are unable to interrupt me. But why is it I like to come out here. I'd like to share a bit about that.
