I used to hang up When solicitors Called. I viewed them as Intruders. I simply said, "I'm Sorry. I'm not Interested," and Ended the call. No longer. I discovered that Those who man The phones are People too, Needy, just like I am. So now, before they Get very far, I interject, "What Is your name?" Yesterday it was Jay, Today, Carla. "Do you have a prayer Request?" I ask. Taken aback, They usually have one. I was pleased to find Jay was a believer. "You can pray for My music ministry," He said. Carla? She asked me to pray for Her family. So when I hung up The phone, I prayed. And I wrote down Their names so I Can pray later too. I didn't contribute to their Cause. But I did contribute to Their souls. |
