Caring

You drink all the wine you want and wear expensive perfume, but you don’t care about the ruin of your nation. ~ Amos 6:6 (CEV)

You obey the law of Christ when you offer each other a helping hand. ~ Galatians 6:2 (CEV)

KEY IDEA:

When we care for others in practical ways we are living according to the way of Jesus.

PRAYER:

Kind God, thank you for caring so much that you sent your Son into the world to intervene on our behalf. I wish that I was consistent in the way that I care for people, too. But my wealth tends to make me blind to the needs of others. I want to care but the world expects someone like me to live in a certain way. Help me break my addiction to pleasure and comfort. Help me to care like Jesus. That's my goal. Amen.
