It's not so much what you do as it is how you do it!

...we reflect the heart of the Good Shepherd, who rejoices over every lost sheep that is found.

Gratitude is as a powerful counterbalance between the ways of the world and the ways of Christ. Gratitude shifts our focus from what we lack to what we have, and in doing so, it transforms our perspective so we can see the way things really are.

What we do at Kitchen One for One is much more about sharing Jesus with people than it is filling their bellies. When we take that part seriously, God is able to do some amazing things.

Our service is a testament to the power of God’s love.

…it is our responsibility to listen to them. Like, really listen to them. Try to hear their hearts, and then respond in a way that shows them they’ve been heard, what they say matters, who they are matters, that they have value, and that we want to help meet their needs.

Serving others isn’t supposed to be about grand gestures that bring attention to ourselves, but about everyday acts done in love.

When we genuinely love God, He is the most important thing in our lives. We are to love God above all else.

And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!” (Romans 10:15)

Extending compassion and assistance to others aligns us with God.

Following and being a disciple of Christ requires humility. It requires us to pause and invite the Holy Spirit in to guide our thoughts and feelings as we go through life. We have to humbly ask the Lord to reveal the areas of ourselves where pride gets in the way and hinders us from loving God and others well (or receiving love from God and others well).

Kitchen One for One is a ministry, serving a specific purpose within God’s Kingdom, that is made up of a team consisting of volunteers, donors, some staff members, and a Board.

It’s so important for each of us to go directly to the source of what we really, truly need. It’s important to seek the Lord for the comfort His loving mercy provides.

Do you ever notice how, often times, when we pray, we ask God to “be with us” in whatever we’ve already decided to do? What if you were to ask the Lord what He’s up to and if it would be alright for you to join Him there?

Be sure to enjoy the journey, and don’t run the rat race that life can become, because it’s all meaningless!

Jesus calls everyone into account by asking us, “Who do you say I am?”

It’s about them. It’s about those in need.

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. Philippians 2:3-4

God instituted community. As a matter of fact, we were created for community by a Community.
