Connected Together for Tomorrow: Day 4

What do people sense when you offer them care? Is there anyone you know who models compassion to others?

by David Joynt on October 26, 2016


MATTHEW 25:31-40

Mother Theresa became Saint Theresa just a few weeks ago. Her sisters of mercy were known not just for what they did, but for how they did it. They cared for the sick and dying, the diseased and the leprous, on the streets of Calcutta. But they treated each person as a precious child of God, with dignity and with a tender regard. Seeing the face of Jesus in the needy countenance of his children is a sacred practice.

Care cannot feel to the one cared for as if it is offered out of duty or guilt, but rather out of love.

 

What do people sense when you offer them care?

Is there anyone you know who models compassion to others?

Family Focus - Ask the question “Where and when do we meet Jesus?“ Read the passage and explain that one of the best ways to encounter Him is through helping someone in His name.
