Sharing A Burger April 10, 2015
Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
Hebrews 13:16
Lee Geysbeek of Compassion International told about a woman who had the opportunity to travel to a distant land to visit the child she sponsored. She decided to take the child, who was living in abject poverty, to a restaurant.
The boy ordered a hamburger, and the sponsor ordered a salad. When the food came to the table, the boy, who assuredly had never had such a meal in his life, surveyed the scene. He looked at his huge hamburger and over at his sponsors small salad. Then he took his knife and cut the burger in half, offered it to his sponsor, rubbed his tummy, and asked, Hungry?
A child who had next to nothing his whole life was willing to share half of what he had with someone he thought might need more. This child can be a good reminder the next time we meet someone in physical, emotional, or spiritual need. As followers of Jesus, our faith in Him should be mirrored through our actions (James 2:17).
We encounter people in need every day. Some around the globe, some simply around the corner. Some in need of a warm meal, others a kind word. What a difference followers of Christ, who have experienced His love, could make by doing good and sharing (Heb. 13:16).
Today, Lord, help me see beyond my own problems to the needs of others. Guide my hand to give instead of get, to offer instead of ask, and to bless instead of seeking blessings. May Your name be honored.
To be doing good is mans most glorious task. Sophocles
: James makes a strong connection here between invisible faith and the visible works that faith produces. In Ephesians 2:8-9, Paul declares faith to be completely distinct from works. There is no conflict between these two points, however, for Paul agrees with James in Ephesians 2:10, saying, For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Paul says that salvation in Christ is rooted in faith apart from works, but that this faith will result in the kind of works for which God has made us in Christ.

Spring is wonderful. Too short a time though, here in West Texas. A favorite time of year. We had a brief but priceless rain 2 days ago ... It was 1/4 plus of an inch or a bit more.
West Texas has been in a prolonged drought for years. California is too.
Prayers up for Rain to come to the desperately needy area lands, in Jesus name amen.

I will pray that you the rain that you need! We have family in Corpus Christie, but that’s a far cry from West Texas.
