Matthew 25:34-40
34“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.
35For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
36I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?
38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you?
39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40“The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’
Let us be reminded once again that there are many out there in need of a helping hand. We are truly blessed to be living in a wonderful and prosperous nation where poverty, hunger and war are so foreign to us. The comfort of our homes has so often driven us so far from realising that the world is at war.
As followers of Christ, there are many things that we can contribute to make this world a better place. Our prayer, our finances or even a word of encouragement can make a big different in someone life. We might not change it but we can sure make it better.
As NG3, we want to play our part in extending a helping hand to the underprivileged and the community as much as we can and at the same time cultivating a habit of Christ love for others in our lifestyle and daily activities. Stay tune for more to come as we embark on this journey together. http://www.compassion.com.au/
