Matthew 25.31-45
What I found intriguing about the parable here is that both the sheep and the goats were in the company of Jesus. They were mingled together before they were separated. Appears to me that what separated them was how they treated those in need.
It is easy to see that God has a heart for the poor and those that are "forgotten" by the mainstream. I cannot tell you how many "church" people I know that show by their actions (as well as lack of action) that they couldn't care less. This is sad and they are deceived.
I can apply this knowledge to my life on the daily as I seek divine appointments to be of service to my fellow man. There is no shortage of those in need, especially these days.
Lord, thank You for a renewed mind that has left childish things behind. Thank you for a mind that is stayed on you, surrounded by Your counsel and wisdom, and filled with Your thoughts. I thank You today and every day for the impositions and untimely inconveniences that will be a help to those You've placed in my path that are in need. Let those that I service see You in me and not that I suppose to be anything.
Thanks Father.
