Today’s scripture:
Matthew 9:12-13
Our Lord deserves all our worship and praise. He deserves sacrifice of our time, talents, and treasures.
But He wants more than that. He wants us to be His hands and feet in a broken, hurting world. He wants us to be His light in darkness.
He wants us to show mercy to the sick, to the difficult, to the (in our eyes) undeserving. He wants us to show love to the unlovable. He wants us to show grace when we receive nothing in return.
Our Lord’s heart is to save sinners, and when we’re “Jesus in the flesh,” unbelievers will see Him and want to know more about Him.
It’s a privilege we shouldn’t take for granted.
