Care for Others
by Mary & Jeff Zehren

“Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”  Hebrews 13:16

Caring is a strong feeling of giving of one’s self to others, a strength given to us all.  Caring for others is a tool from God to give strength where there is weakness, to give delight where there is sorrow. 

We have found in our lives that there is no better exercise for strengthening the heart than reaching down and lifting people up. 

God gifts each and every one of us with this special trait and in exercising this gift, others will come to know His greatness and promise.

Dear Lord, thanks for the care that You give to us.  Help us to be caring and loving to others.  Teach us how caring is one way to learn more about You.  Help us to be a caring people in a world that needs it so badly.  In Jesus’ name, AMEN. 

 

P.S.  Caring also relates to fishing; it is something that everyone should catch.  (Book of Jeff 2:16)
