Spend A Year With Jesus-Helping Those In Need; 10/4/2020
Description
Helping Those in Need
We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak
and not to please ourselves.
Romans 15:1 (NIV)
Comfort springs from the words of Jesus; they are the surest and sweetest words of life and the greatest path to hope. Likewise, we are to live and show these words through all of our actions. In our humble obedience to these words, we become beacons of help to others. When these words are the direction of our heart, we move from a life of self-centeredness to a life of helping others. We become inspired to defend the downtrodden. We bring our words of encouragement to those who need comfort. Through our presence as children of God, we lift up those who struggle. It is not through our judgement that others receive help, but through our Christian attitude of service for humankind. With this attitude we imitate the very being of Christ our Lord.
