I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.—Matthew 25:40 (KJV)
Making yourselves available night or day to answer the call for help,...to sit with a friend who is lonely and needs companionship, to run an errand for a neighbor, or counseling and praying with someone in a crisis. We are never closer to God than when we are loving, giving, caring and extending kindness, through the Spirit of Jesus Christ. That ain't working, and it's not an inconvenience, or task,....but a pleasure and a joy!
Heartache, injustice, and difficulty are not sufficient reasons to dishonor the Lord through disobedience. Pain is not permission to disregard our commitment to the Lord in faith.
When darkness hovers, and pain is present, dear Lord, find us faithful. Help us to always remember that; It's a joy to be in the service of our Lord. Amen.
"It's nice to be important,...but it's more important to be nice."
