The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me. Matthew 25:40
Many people feel the need to serve others in some capacity. Some are motivated by a sense of duty, while others are driven to serve out of their own desire to help others. Some people are simply blessed with a natural ability to help others and take great pleasure in doing so.
Regardless of the motivation, serving others is a good thing. The world could use more people who are willing to put themselves out there before themselves and do good deeds. You should never hesitate to serve others, for it is the right thing to do.
By serving others you are serving our Lord and Savior.
Prayer
Dear God,
Please help me to be a person who is always ready and willing to help others. Help me to see the needs of others and to have the compassion and kindness to meet those needs. Give me the strength and wisdom to know how to help in the best way possible. Help me to remember that it is always better to give than to receive.
Amen.
