p.31:20

Proverbs 31:20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.

Action. Compassion. Considerate. Thankful. Gracious giver. Here we see that while we are to be busy loving God (whatever you do wether you eat / drink do it all for the glory of God) at home and with our families, we are to consider others and their situation. We must feel blessed and thankful to have the blessings and comforts that God gives to us graciously, and we must act. Jesus walked this Earth and would say "I will" to those who would say to Him: "Jesus, Son of God, if you will, heal me". Jesus did not just think about healing them, He took action, once even making mud and putting it on a blind man's eyes and commanding him to go wash his eyes to receive his sight. God tells us to think of others better and before us, do we do this when we see someone in need? Also, God commands us to be gracious givers... are we extending His heart in this matter? Another food for thought is to simply go back to any situations in your life where you have been in need, and see how God has always provided and sustained you.

Shalom.


Meditate.
ACTIVATE.
