Today's Scripture *January 7, 2009*
Leviticus 19: 33-34
“Do not take advantage of foreigners who live among you in your land. Treat them like native-born Israelites, and love them as you love yourself. Remember that you were once foreigners living in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
How do you feel when you encounter foreigners, especially those who don't speak your language? Are you impatient? Do you think or act as if they should go back where they came from? Are you tempted to take advantage of them? Or treat them unfairly? Do you talk down to them?
God says to treat foreigners as you'd treat fellow countrymen, to love them as yourself.
In reality, we are all foreigners in this world because it is only our temporary home. View strangers, newcomers, and foreigners as opportunities to demonstrate God's love!
Heavenly Father, help us to love all the people You place around us.
Help us to be gentle, patient, and loving to those people.
May we all treat others as we'd like to be treated ourselves.
May we show Your love to all people. In Jesus' Name, Amen..
God bless you!
April
