Reaching Out-Part One-Fishing For A Good Cause

By Jeff Roman

Did you happen to open up your latest addition of the national magazine called B.A.S.S. Times? ( if you don’t receive Bass Times I have a copy of it here at the store or email me and I will send you a copy or Google it to see if you could find it) on page 16 in the December issue there is a wonderful article that Robert Montgomery the senior writer put in on fishing for a good cause. It describes a half a dozen different charity tournaments held around the country and all the good that it does for those places and surrounding areas. Helping everything from conservation to disabled children, the children’s miracle network, youth baseball and many other worthwhile charities. Sometimes between the outdoor community and the athletic community we get a bad rap for not giving back. Or so it seems to some. But on the contrary many of these organizations and groups do you give back (more than most people will ever know) but they give back quietly and you know if it’s good news the mainstream media doesn’t like publishing it. They only like putting out bad news. But so many people out there are doing great things in the outdoor world for others and it’s nice to see a little recognition going to these places and these groups. 

So during this next month of the Christmas season let us all see what we can be doing for others. 

In the book of Romans chapter 15 Paul wrote, "we who are strong have an obligation to pair with the failings of the week, and not to please ourselves. That each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. For Christ did not please Himself."

So as Paul wrote to the Romans, "may we all take this to heart. We have an obligation. An obligation to help those who CAN’T help themselves. 

So during this Christmas season when you are enjoying family and friends be thinking of the ones in need and seeing what we can also do to help them because it’s an obligation that Jesus gave to us.

Remember, its says in John 15:12; “this is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 

Have a wonderful Christmas season.
Remember the reason for the season.
