Why are so many people out for just themselves in a time like this, the world is cruel but as christians we are sopposed to be supporting and helping as many people as possible, from trying to help people in poverty to giving someone a lift home when needed.
'If any of your people become poor and unable to support themselves, you must help them, just as you are supposed to help foreigners who live among you.' Leviticus 25:35 (contemporary English version)
'Generosity will be rewarded: Give a cup of water, and you will receive a cup of water in return.' Proverbs 11:25 (contemporary English version)
We as christians need to look at how we live our lives on a day to day basis, God is not judging us on how we act in church but how we serve outside of church. We have been instructed to go out into the world and spread the word, the word is love, God is love... so why we still stuck to our church seats?
Spreading the word doesn't mean you have to be preaching. Spreading and showing God's love is more then preaching, it's they way you treat the homless and poverty strucken, it's they way you think about your enermies and rivals, it's the attitudes you have towards your mother, father, siblings, family and friends, its the way you conduct yourself everyday. There is so many people looking, begging and searching for a special love, not realising its God's love they need and guess what we have it! Why not give them the love they need? What is stopping us?
We do not want to be like the seeds that fell on rocky ground or like the seeds that fell around thornbushes, but we need to be like the seeds that fell on good ground and lasted and grew a harvest (luke 8:9 -15) because with the harvest we have, people will and can get fed, if we are just sitting on our harvest we are getting fatter and unhealther which is not needed.
Think about how you can change someones life and not just sit on the thought but get up of your bottom and do it, we don't have anything stopping or holding us back, so just do it, spread the light to all you can.......
