Doing For Others

Scripture: Matthew 25: 40 “The King will reply, `I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’

Observation: There is always a special feeling when you go out of your way to help someone. My best memories are the times when I was able to do something nice for someone else. I can feel the presence of my Lord and a gentle embrace. It seems the only time I know for sure that I’m pleasing God is the time I’m helping others.

Application: I want to build a memory of times I stepped out and helped others, so I need to plan ways of reaching out and daily take opportunities to do something for someone else. Then always realize by doing so I’m more in God’s will then ever.

Prayer: My Lord guide me and show me how to reach out to others in your name. May I bring a smile on your face as I touch the life of someone today.
