"Don't withhold good from someone who deserves it, when it is in your power to do so." Proverbs 3: 27

God longs for us to encourage one another. When we serve the Lord with gladness, we demonstrate the love of Christ and make a difference in the lives of those who need to know we care. 

God uses us to demonstrate how He guides and provides with STRENGTH for today, HOPE for tomorrow, PEACE in His presence and JOY as we follow Jesus. As He uses us to help those in need, we will be blessed as we honor Him with faithful LOVE. 

The Bible has a lot to say about LOVE. “And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.” The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.” Mark 12:30-31 NLT 

God longs for us to encourage and HELP one another. When we serve the Lord with gladness, we will demonstrate the example of Christ and shine the light of His love in beautiful ways as we speak of mercy, grace and obey God’s calling to grow us.  

Caring is much more than an obligation. Everyone needs the LOVE of a faithful, praying friend who will encourage their walk with Jesus. The giving of our hearts doesn’t have to be elaborate or spectacular. The presence of our JOY will not go unnoticed when we share what God's already given to us.  

When we truly LOVE Him with all of our hearts, surely, God will grow our own as we give Him the glory and walk where He wants us to go to faithfully serve Him and be a blessing to others. 

May we always be ready to HELP those in need and share the goodness of God. He is HERE and HE loves us. “God is not unjust; He will not forget your work and the love you have shown Him as you have helped His people and continue to help them.” Hebrews 6:10 NIV

Dear God, Thank you for Your presence. You ready us to share the love of Jesus as we love one another. Help us be an answer to someone else’s prayer and never become too busy to show why we care. Open the eyes of our hearts so we will clearly see those around us and be ready to respond with the compassion of Christ. Thank you, Lord. You bless us in many ways as we help one another. May we honor You all of our lives by the way we choose to share Your precious LOVE. Amen
