Hi BJ,
Thank you so much for this Inspiring Story. With what is going on in the World today, we must conduct ourselves in such a way as to lead and teach by example. I am reminded of two of my favorite Scriptures from His word:
Matthew 25: 41-46 On the last day, Jesus will say to those on His right hand, "Come, enter the Kingdom. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was sick and you visited me." Then Jesus will turn to those on His left hand and say, "Depart from me because I was hungry and you did not feed me, I was thirsty and you did not give me to drink, I was sick and you did not visit me." These will ask Him, "When did we see You hungry, or thirsty or sick and did not come to Your help?" And Jesus will answer them, "Whatever you neglected to do unto one of these least of these, you neglected to do unto Me!"
Matthew 5:14-16 [Jesus said] “You are the light of the world. Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”
Our life is never neutral. Our words & actions will either point others away from God or we will help them to see that allegiance to God is all important. Each & every day we must make an intentional effort to shine the light of God's holiness and grace in all we do and say.
O God, may the words of my mouth, the actions of my life, and the influence of my deeds show others your holiness and grace and lead them to acknowledge your majesty and might. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
God Bless You My Friend,
Phil
