But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth (1 John 3:17-18) ESV.

Father, you remind me what true and authentic Christianity is by sharing your unconditional love with others in practical ways. Lead me to someone who is in need of practical help today or over the weekend. Guide me to help the needy and comfort the wounded that they may receive the loving and healing touch of Jesus. In Jesus' name I pray.
