Living on
Mission – Gentle Acts of Goodness and Kindness
“Do not
withhold good from those who deserve it when it’s in your power to help them. If
you can help your neighbor now, don’t say, “Come back tomorrow, and then
I’ll help you.” (Proverbs 3:27, 28 NLT)
We’re keeping
it super simple this week, my Friends. I’m extending a challenge for each of us
to ask God to show us how we can put this verse into practice this week. Father God, please guide us to someone in
need this week, or even today, and help us to show goodness and kindness to
them. Remind us of this in case we are tempted to withhold good from them
instead of showing them gentleness in the manner of Jesus.
This scripture
is so good I just have to repeat it in another translation. “Never walk away
from someone who deserves help; your hand is God’s hand for that person.
Don’t tell your neighbor ‘Maybe some other time’ or ‘Try me tomorrow’ when
the money’s right there in your pocket.” (Proverbs 3:27, 28 MSG)
Let’s
practice Living on Mission through Gentle acts of Goodness and Kindness.
