ARE WE DOING OUR BEST

"Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD."

Leviticus 19:18
King James Version

William M. Golden wrote a hymn that should challenge all of us to do our best for Jesus. The name of this hymn is "A BEAUTIFUL LIFE".

"Each day I’ll do a golden deed, By helping those who are in need, My life on earth is but a span, And so I’ll do the best I can, The best I can.

Life’s evening sun is sinking low, A few more days and I must go To meet the deeds that I have done, Where there will be no setting sun.

To be a child of God each day, My light must shine along the way; I’ll sing His praise while ages roll And strive to help some troubled soul, Some troubled soul."

Are we allowing others to see and know how much Jesus loves them by our words and by our actions? If not, we are hurting Him and breaking His heart. It is time we make Jesus happy. If ever someone deserves to be happy, it is Jesus.

We read in the Bible "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

Are we making Jesuis happy or are we hurting Him and breaking His heart because we don't praise Him and thank Him for all He has done for us? May God have mercy on us if we are hurting His beloved Son.
