The Least of These
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
Matthew 25:34-40
There are so many ways that this passage of Scripture can be applied and put into practice. Have you ever been to our page “The Child in Need?” There are some suggestions there, but no doubt your family could think of ways to apply this passage. If each of us seeks the Lord in earnest, He’ll show us a way. Back in October, I wrote about a family on my personal blog who found a way via adoption. If you read this entry, I’m sure your heart will be touched.
Who knows how our great God might use the people of your house.
For His Glory,
Maxine, a/k/a Nanna
