ISAIAH 58:7 (NLT)
Share your food with the hungry...
HEBREWS 13:16 (NLT)
And don’t forget to do good and to share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
The thing that really pleases God is when we make a habit out of sharing with those in need.
DAILY FODDER
When was the last time you shared something with someone in need?
PRAYER
Generous God, you've been sharing from the beginning -- creation itself, then the responsibility to manage it with you, then when we botched things up, your Son made a big sacrifice to share new life with us. I learned to share small things as a child, but haven't really taken the whole sharing thing to an adult level, yet. Immerse me so much in the life of Christ that sharing with those in need becomes my second nature. I'm going to be looking today for someone in need. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil. Amen!
