NEIGHBORS IN NEED

SERVING NEIGHBORS       SERVING GOD
 
Romans 15:2- 3
The Message (MSG)


2 Each one of us needs to look after the good of the people
around us, asking ourselves, “How can I help?”
That’s exactly what Jesus did.


N
eighbors.  We know that we are instructed to love them, and yet there’s so little time…and we’re so busy. No matter. As Christians, we are commanded by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to love our neighbors just as we love ourselves. Period.

This very day, you will encounter someone who needs a word of encouragement or a pat on the back or a helping hand or a heartfelt prayer. And, if you don’t reach out to your friend, who will?  If you don’t take the time to understand the needs of your neighbors, who will? If you don’t love your brothers and sisters, who will?  

So, today, look for a neighbor in need…and then do something to help. Father’s orders.
