Forgotten

There are people in this world that we have no idea what they do. People have simply been forgotten. All over the world there are unreached people groups. There are people in remote villages that no person, or any outside communication have reached.

Thursday, I went with a team to a place in Benton, LA. We went to a horse training farm where a bunch of Hispanic people work as trainers for race horses. This place is like a little community. They are not unreached, but people just have no clue they even exist. Me and our team of about twenty five young people, went with our youth pastor to minister to them. We shared testimonies, and did a drama. There were about five or six people that accepted Jesus Christ as there Lord and Savior.

I was so blessed to speak into these peoples lives. We went to bless them, but I think that I was blessed more. That happens so many times in life with really anything. You go to give, but you end up receiving.

All this to say that there are people that are forgotten. Many times we are so tunnel visioned as we go through our day. We never even look left or right to see the people next to us. I just want to encourage you to look around and find the forgotten people in your area. It doesn't take much. Maybe just a smile or a pat on the back. You could even bless them by taking them to lunch or just spending time with them. James 1:27 says this, "Religion that God our father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."
