BLESS YOU

Today's reading: Deuteronomy 23-25

"When you are harvesting your crops and forget to bring in a bundle of grain from your field, don't go back and get it. Leave it for the foreigners, orphans and widows. Then the Lord your God will bless you in all you do." Deuteronomy 24:19 NLT

As you're out doing some Christmas shopping, you'll notice them.

The folks sitting on the side of the road with their signs... 'Will Work For Good' or 'Homeless' or 'Veteran Needing Help'.

Your heart is quickly grabbed by the sight and your mind races wondering, How much cash is there in my wallet? Then sadly, What will they do with the money I give them?

This morning's Scripture doesn't have much to say about what the foreigners, orphans and widows--it's speaking to us.

To give.

To help.

To bring glory to God by our actions.

To be blessed by our Father in heaven.

So let's be His hands and feet this special season. Allow Him to work through us, for us and in us, while we help another.
