What are you compelled to do for others who are in need or just because? Today's episode comes from the Book of Acts 20:35 NIV. In a world where we are constantly taking from others we are reminded in the bible what Jesus did.  He modeled for us what we need to do.  This verse moved me because it causes us to pause and think about what all God has given us.
