What if you came across Jesus today and He was thirsty. Would you give Him a drink? That Idea is the subject of Matthew 25:31-26:5. And what are we to do? So much of the day it seems we are needing to please people that have enough food, drink, housing, clothes, and are not in prison. Hmm..........
I sure don't have all the answers to the question: "Who are the 'least of these' that You want me to serve, Lord?" I guess my "Momma heart" does think of the children around that we can consider it an honor to serve (we are giving to Jesus). Then there are the causes around that we can speak up for and contribute to. (Did you know that all over England, George Louis, the future king, was referred to as being a baby - never a fetus or product of conception - not even in his first trimester?) Hm....... Maybe a baby is a baby.
If you read the our passage in Matthew, you will see that the question. "Who are the 'least of these that You want me to serve, Lord?" is pretty important. Maybe a starting place is to begin asking God for eyes to see others as He does, and a heart to feel about others as He does.
Yes, Lord. Give us Your eyes and heart for others. We desire to serve You in "the least of these".
