Forgive Me I Don'T Mean To Inturde

Forgive Me… I Don’t Mean To Intrude… Forgive me, my Christian brother… I don’t mean to intrude. I know that you’ve been pretty busy... I don’t want to be rude… You told me you’re too busy. And don’t care… But I can’t find anyone else to talk to… Anywhere! I was hoping for just a few minutes of your time… But you almost act like “I’ve committed a crime…” I think of the parable of the priest, levite or good Samaritan... The Samaritan seen a hurting man And took care of him! The other two represented “the church” of the day. They simply passed up the beaten man without a word to say! There’s people like him that surround you with various needs… Perhaps you need to go where the Holy Spirit leads! Rather than making excuses of just how busy you seem to be… What you do or do not do will impact someone’s eternity! May the love of Christ compel us into HIS love in action. Reaching others for Christ must be done with a heart of compassion! May the love of Christ stir us and daily be a reminder. To those around us… May we be sensitive and kinder! Christ was never too busy for me. He is always there! May I be his example to other people…. Everywhere! By Jim Pemberton
