TODAY’S READING
Micah 6:6-8
KEY VERSE: What does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. – Micah 6:8 (NIV)
MESSAGE: In April 2020, I started cooking food every Wednesday for people in my community who were living on the streets. When I prepare stir-fry, the shallot, ginger, and spring onion fill our whole house with good smells. The natural colors of different vegetables — green, red, purple, brown — decorate the dishes and entice my husband to join me in preparing the food. After cutting the roast chicken, he places it into the box, arranging it like a five-star hotel chef would.
This is how we show God’s love and share it with others, filling our life with joy and harmony. Everyone wants to be loved. It only takes a small act. When we give a little time, we can help make a big difference in others’ lives. People who give also receive happiness and love. When we give to and love each other, we can create a more beautiful world.
TODAY’S PRAYER
O Lord, help us to show your love and mercy to others. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Today I will take time to share God’s love.
PRAYER FOCUS
People who need my hospitality
