Acts 20:35
“In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
This verse reminds me again how precious we hold our own lives, and our time here on earth. We are hard to convince, sometimes, that spending our time helping out someone else is time well-spent. When I have “free time” it is often difficult for me to give it up. But Jesus’ words are so true, and I know they are true: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ When we give of ourselves and our time, we come away knowing we have done the right thing.
Holy Lord, thank you for your guidance, for your Word, passed down to us through centuries, holding your truth for us to live out. I am so grateful. Amen
