Theme: "The relationships of God's children with each other"
Text: Isaiah 58:7-11
7. Share your bread with the hungry, and bring the poor who have no shelter into your house; if you see a naked man, cover him, and do not turn away from your neighbor. 8. Then your light will break forth like the morning, and your healing will spring forth quickly; your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will follow you. 9. Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry, and he will say, Here I am! If you take away the yoke from among you, Threatening gestures and abusive speech, 10. If you give your own food to the hungry, If you satisfy the needy soul, then your light will rise in the darkness, And your darkness will be like the noonday. 11. The LORD will guide you continually, He will satisfy your soul in dry places, And he will restore strength to your bones; You will be like a watered garden, Like a spring whose waters do not fail.
Let us remember:
When speaking of relationships between the children of God, we enter into the domain of interaction, good neighborliness, cohesion and communion. It is about the whole of the relationships and links existing between the children of God. If they frequent and communicate; how do they do it? It is about the way in which the children of God are linked, or the way in which they behave towards each other. The relationships of God's children with each other must be pure and healthy because at the center of them is Jesus Christ, the common Lord. When relationships are good, Jesus Christ secures and blesses them. God accompanies all good relationships and blesses their authors. In the relationships of God's children with each other, God blesses everyone who shares his bread with the hungry. He does good to everyone who brings the poor and homeless into his house. God blesses him who covers the naked. He loves him who does not turn away from his fellow man. Love of neighbor must be the center of brotherly relationships between God's children. This is how our light will break forth like the morning, and healing will spring forth quickly; our righteousness will go before us, and the glory of the Lord will accompany us. This is the secret of blessing, it is the foundation of a fulfilled life. Loving God and our neighbor makes us richer than any work in this world. Let us have good relationships in order to live the promises of God. Excellent Monday. Amen
