Trail Mix - 6.11.19

June 11, 2019 – “Vance Havner called them “the Saints of the Second Mile!” Who was he talking about? Those believers who go above and beyond the call of duty; who do far more for JESUS than they have to just because they love HIM so! We are glad to do more than our duty for those we love here below, how much more for the ONE who died that we might live?” S. E. Trail

My prayer for you today is for you to become a “Second Mile Saint!”

Matthew 5:44  But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

“A big, burly man visited the pastor's home and asked to see the minister's wife, a woman well known for her charitable impulses. "Madam," he said in a broken voice, "I wish to draw your attention to the terrible plight of a poor family in this district. The father is dead, the mother is too ill to work, and the nine children are starving. They are about to be turned into the cold, empty streets unless someone pays their rent, which amounts to $400." "How terrible!" exclaimed the preacher's wife. "May I ask who you are?" The sympathetic visitor applied his handkerchief to his eyes. "I'm the landlord," he sobbed.”
