Caring For Others!
"He saved others."
Matthew 27: 42
Would you believe giant balls of twine are scattered here and there
around the world? The largest is said to be in Kansas, where a man
named Frank Stoeber spent his life winding 1.6 million feet of twine
into a massive ball, which is now a tourist attraction.
Another man, Francis A. Johnson, spent years working on his ball
of twine in Darwin, Minnesota. We could give other examples, but
the lesson is as sharp as a needle. Many people spend their lives
spinning their possessions into larger and larger bundles, which
they’ll only leave behind.
How much better to live as Jesus did—for others.
Even His enemies said, “He saved others.” Jesus
lived for us, and He wants us to live for Him and
for others—for one another.
Look around you today. Perhaps you’ll run across a
child needing a smile, a disabled person needing a
boost, a weary worker needing a kind word, a lonely
person needing a call or note.
Think of a way to encourage your pastor.
Caring for others is the tie that binds. So
look to Jesus and follow His pattern.
"A person wrapped up in himself
makes a very small bundle."
Benjamin Franklin
