“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith” (Galatians 6:9-10).
Bart and Luanne were rehearsing with their families how they met Cliff and Karis at church years before. Cliff had a way about him that easily drew people to himself. Some folks often commented that “Cliff had a way of showing up just when folks needed him.” Though Cliff was highly educated, he didn’t come across in an arrogant or high-and-mighty way. One morning Bart was greatly on Cliff’s mind. After praying again for him, Cliff decided to pick up the phone and give him a call. That phone call came at one of Bart’s lowest times. Cliff didn’t give him a long list of empty clichés. He encouraged him on the phone, and from that act of kindness years of friendship and blessings would result. Who will you “do good” unto today?
For today: Don’t become tired of doing well. Ask the Lord for ways to demonstrate goodness today.
