Love in action: be a miracle!

Publication date Dec 7, 2024

We try our best to eat healthy, but I, Jenny, have a sweet tooth, and my cravings often get the better of me! 🙈 That’s why I avoid buying sweets – I can't resist them if they’re in the house.

One day, after a particularly rough and exhausting day, my sugar cravings hit hard, but we had no snacks at home 😭 So, I sent a quick prayer up to heaven: “Lord, let someone show up on my doorstep with something sweet.” 🙏🏼

friend, I kid you not, to my great surprise and delight, not long after, the doorbell rang, and two friends appeared with a freshly baked banana cake! 🥧🤤 

I probably shouldn’t have been so surprised because I know God answers prayers, even the small and seemingly silly ones. But I’ve prayed this prayer more times than I care to admit, and it hasn’t always been answered –probably for the best! 🤪

It wasn’t as if our friends had heard God’s voice from heaven say, “Thou shalt bake a cake and bring it to Cameron and Jenny right this instant!”. No, they were simply baking cakes and asking themselves, “Who can we share this with?”. It was the Holy Spirit who gently put our names on their hearts. 

Our friends showing up with cake was a little chamatkar. Sometimes, we get chamatkars and other times, we get to be chamatkars to those around us. The Bible says, “Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” 1 John 3:18 and “as we have the opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.”Galatians 6:10.

friend, is there someone you could be a chamatkar to today? You don’t have to start baking cakes; it could be as simple as forwarding this email to let them know you’re thinking of them.

Hey! You are a Chamatkar.
