Taking the Opportunity

Scripture: Galatians 6 [10] Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

Observation: This morning I was walking and a gentleman asked me to help someone who fell and couldn’t get up. I went inside and helped get him up on his walker and left. When I left I felt the Holy Spirit and I thanked God for the opportunity and health to be able to help. So why don’t I search out more opportunities to help others instead of avoiding them?

Application: I know there are always opportunities to help others and I need to stop avoiding them and start searching them out. I’m here to serve as Jesus was and I need to get busy putting myself out there to help. Jesus told me to love others and I can’t accomplish that by sitting on my couch watching television.

Prayer: Dear Lord I give you this life please take it and use it for your glory. Help me finish this race the way You want me to finish and take this selfishness away.
