Unto The Least Of One Of My Brethren…
Our Life Group Study this week is Matthew 25:34-40. Jesus was seeking to teach us to be aware of those around us and minister to not only the spiritual needs of people but also the physical needs of people. It’s more than giving them a quick hand out. It’s more than writing a check. It’s about getting involved with people, knowing them and meeting their needs – IN THE NAME OF JESUS. If we serve people for self gratitude or self praise then our work is in vain. Sure it helps those we give to – but it does nothing for us spiritually. We must be servants. We must give as Jesus gave…freely, with love, nothing expected in return. Are you practicing this? Are you seeking to meet needs of others with all that God has blessed you with? Remember, our earthly possessions can either be horded up, stored up, or they can be used to bless others. How are you living your life? Selfishly or giving self away for the sake of blessing others?
One new note: Life House was blessed yesterday to get a call from a local business that informed us that they give to missions every month out of the profits that God has blessed them with. This business supports several mission project throughout the world. They have chosen to add Life House to their budget giving! AMEN AMEN AND AMEN! We appreciate their generosity and love for missions! God has placed His stamp of approval on this mission time and time again! Praise Him!!
