I Met This Lady Who Didn'T Know What To Do

I met a lady who didn't know what to do. She was deserted by the one who said; "I love you!" I can't begin to describe her look of despair. She asked; "does anyone out there really care?" She told me of her very difficult situation. Feeling much hopelessness and frustration. I remember seeing her and her family at church before. But things are different now... She's not happy anymore. I was in a hurrry... not wanting this "extra burden." But this one thought from scripture became quite certain. We must minister to the widows and single mothers too. This is a command Jesus asks of me and you. As the body of Christ... we must serve one another. Reaching out to the widows and the single mother. We must see that their needs get our undivided attention. Even though, at times, it's a difficult situation. We must act quickly and boldly take a stand. Reaching out to the widows and single mothers as Christ commands! By Jim Pemberton 2008
