Do We Choose Whom We Love and Ignore Those We Don'T
Why Do We “Choose” Whom We Love… And Ignore Others?
Why do we often “choose” those we love…
And ignore those we don’t?
It’s a good thing that Christ doesn’t do this! He won’t!
Far too often,… People attending church today…
Will many times “choose” whom they’ll love…
And turn others away?
I’ve heard sermons preached
on how we must love others too...
For many, It’s too “inconvenient,”
to love others like we should do!
What about the “undesirables?”
Those who fall through the cracks?
It doesn’t matter if someone is from
“the wrong side of the tracks!”
I pray that God will stir in all of us
a deep compassion within!
Perhaps, by our example…
Others will be born again!
May our life be one that is filled
with sacrifice and giving!
May it be an expression of Christ!
And his power of forgiving!
May we strive to treat others and love them all the same!
If we don’t follow Christ’ example…
We have ourselves to blame!
Christ’ word has laid the foundation
for loving every soul!
The mission field is all around us!
Let’s get up and GO!
