HAVE WE DONE IT

“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 25:40 KJV

If we will read the rest of this chapter, we will understand that when we are kind and loving to others, we are kind and loving to Jesus.  However, when we aren’t kind and loving to others we are not being kind and loving to Jesus and we are hurting Him and breaking His heart.

Have we done it?  Have we been kind and loving to others and made Jesus happy or have we said cruel words and done things that hurt others and thereby hurt our precious Saviour?  May God have mercy on us if we have deliberately hurt Jesus because of our unkind words and actions to others.

What about our family?  Are we being kind and loving to them?  Our family should be able to see the difference Jesus has made in our heart and life since we invited Him into our heart to be our personal Saviour?  Does our family see and hear the difference Jesus has made in our heart and in our life?

Heavenly Father, please forgive me for not always loving unconditionally as Jesus has commanded us to love one another.  I’m sorry.  If I start to say something or do something that will hurt Jesus and break His heart, please don’t let me do it.  I need your help, dear Father.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
