It's always very easy to extend kindness when eyes are looking, but questionable when the surrounding is empty. Most of us are praise and attention seekers.
My earthly father taught me this: If you don't learn to give ten cents today, you will not be able to give twenty cents tomorrow. I always believe that Jesus could have spoken to my father before?
In the New Testament of the Bible, most of us have read, heard sermons about our Saviour feeding five thousand with only five loaves of bread and two fishes. A young lad committed his food to Jesus to perform a miracle; to feed five thousand. John 6:9
Trust me, our Saviour Jesus consider it a miracle if today you reach out, a heart filled with His love and humility, just to feed one less fortunate person in your midst!
Wait! Wait!, Just in case you wanted to tell me that you just bought a friend a meal...I think that's not counted. It had to be someone less fortunate and a stranger to you. A stinky and dirty person will be an added credit.
Maybe some of you may struggle to be kind even though often you boast about how kind and generous you are to your friends. Don't worry! All you really needed to do is ask the One who had experience feeding five thousand to help you start off feeding one. And your role is only to shout out loud inside yourself that you wanted to learn to care for someone today.
Your commitment to feed one today may witness you feeding five thousand tomorrow! Miracles belongs to Jesus! Help feed one person today and Jesus will help you feed five thousand tomorrow.
Apart from me, you can do nothing on your own. John 15:5
