He gives, and He takes away. Nothing belongs to us; we forget this so often. He is in control of our story, and our lives belong to Him. Love like you have no tomorrow, give as you never have without expecting something in return, and find joy in every bit of your life.

Most churches have many volunteer activities for those looking for something less demanding than teaching Sunday school or heading up a committee. There are volunteer positions such as greeters, meal preparation for the ill, writing cards and notes to the sick, flower arrangements and more.

He said in Jeremiah 29:13 that when we seek Him with all of our hearts, He would be found by us; but He wants us to seek Him; He wants us to make Him the thing we're striving after, and when we do, He draws closer and opens our eyes to see more and more of Himself.
