"We're the Pam now!"

I heard the news of the shootings at MSU as I was talking with some of the Living Waters leadership team members. As we were hearing of the chaos and trauma on the campus, I found myself holding back tears and saying how much I missed our dear ministry friend, Pam, who passed away last year. We all agreed that she would be directly involved in the aftermath at MSU, leading crisis debriefings with her unbelievably strong, but gently, motherly compassion. She was skilled at helping people through trauma. The Lord spoke to my heart and I relayed the message to the team, “We’re the Pam now!” We may have different gifts. We may not feel qualified. But Jesus has deposited into each one of us the unique skill sets that He wants us to use to touch lives for eternity. We can pray. We can speak. We can care. We can make a difference to the lives Jesus brings our way. Each of us is a unique vessel for Jesus, skillfully designed to fulfill the specific purpose that He calls us to. “We’re the Pam now!” Go out today and be a light for Jesus in this dark world.
