Heavenly Father, the poor of the world teach us so much about human dignity, about justice, and about loving our neighbor. When the stresses of everyday life overwhelm us, help us to remember those who struggle daily for survival. Help us to take advantage of the opportunities You present us to help them, by generously sharing our blessings and Your love. We ask all of this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least
of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’”
(Matthew 25:40) NIV

Week of Feb. 5 - 11, 2012
Almighty God, we are grateful that You care enough to strengthen us. Your strength is poured into us so we can do Your will: to care for the poor, the orphaned, and the widows. Lord, we are capable people, and can do much just by loving our neighbor, praying for one another, and sharing the good news of a Savior. No matter our situation, sickness, or challenge, if we put our trust in You, we will be renewed by Your strength and Your grace in every moment of every day. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
— Philippians 4:13 (NIV)
