I love this video!!! it is sooooooo AMAZING!!! And it also reminds me that the people we pass us as we walk down the street are real people with family, struggles and lives. I find sometimes I just pass people without a second thought but maybe they need a second thought. maybe they need a prayer . Maybe they need a smile. And maybe just maybe they need someone to reach out to them. In all honesty I wish there was one of these ball pits everywhere cause frankly talking to a complete stranger scares the bajebers out of me!!! Over March break I have gone to NY on a missions trip every year since I entered high school. this last Sunday I was talking to a lady who remembered my first year going and how I came home and got up on stage and said that I didn't talk to a single person on the streets. I laughed. But as I watched this video I realized how many people we could love if we took a step of faith right outside are comfort zone. I have since talked to people on the streets of NY and, like the people in the ball pit, realized how much I had in common with the people I have talked to. Which is totally amazing!!!!!!!! (the fact that I talked to people I didn't know and that we had a lot in common) So tell me. Would you sit in a ball pit with a stranger? and just how far are you willing to step out of your comfort zone?
JAY'S COMMENT:
I, too, LOVED this video, Katelynne!!! TRULY moved my heart to think of ALL the wonderful possibilities ... not only in the world out there (which I find VERY exciting) but also as we meet together. In the weeks ahead, we will have the opportunity to grow to know more & more about each other, as WE gather in the 'ball pit' of fellowship in Aslan's SONG!!!
So … YEAH … count me in the “stretch me into the ball pit” group
