My Brother's Keeper

"And don't forget to do good and share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God." (Hebrews 13:16)

I recently asked kids, "What does the phrase 'my brother's keeper' mean to you?" and encouraged them to search for everyday opportunities to help others.

James, the half-brother of Jesus wrote: "What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you have faith but don't show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, 'Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well' - but then you don't give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do?" (James 2:14-17)

Beloved, what will you do to help another today?
