Caring

I AM FILLED WITH STRENGTH, ENERGY, AND ENTHUSIASM, AS I GO FORTH TO DO GOD’S WORK.

Caring is taking action rather than simply talking about how much should be done or what someone else should do. Do you care enough to stir yourself from a comfortable rut and challenge those who need to be challenged? Do you care enough to take an unpopular stand if that is needed?

Many people say they care, but real caring demands action. If we really care about our world and do sincerely want peace for all, we will become centers of peace ourselves. This requires discipline and self-control. We must give up our war-like, hostile thoughts and feelings. We must cleanse our minds of all inharmony.

It is one thing to say wistfully, “Oh, when will we stop hurting each other?” and quite another to take hold of our own thoughts, feelings, and actions and demonstrate harmony, love, and respect.

Jesus cared. We never doubt this, for He took action and in so doing changed our world. We can do the same. Do you care?

You obey the law of Christ when you offer each other a helping hand. (Galatians 6:2)
