How Do You Choose a Book?

Today’s Scripture…

Matthew 25:44-46

“They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’ “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’ “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Thoughts…

We bookworms are notorious  for picking up just about anything and reading it. Then there are other’s who pick up a book look at the cover, flip,it over and read the back, finally open it up and read a few pages. Then they decide if they want to read it. There is also another group that looks at the cover and decides right there if they will enjoy the book.

Christians often come in those packages also. Some people take one look at someone and stick their noses in the air. Others are cautious and think they need to see if the other person is worthy of being loved. Others just open their hearts and arms and want to share God’s love with everyone. 

In these verses, Jesus is pointing out the type of attitude we need. We look for those moments we can reach out to others. We don’t judge. We don’t choose who deserves God’s love. We show and share His love to everyone. Don’t forget, once upon of time, someone picked up your book and just began reading too.
