Daily Encouragement: Show














This morning's focus comes from Leviticus 19:14:

"Show your fear of God by treating the deaf with respect and by not taking advantage of the blind. I am the Lord."

How we treat others says a lot about who we are.

"....let us stop just saying we love each other; let us really show it by our actions. It is by our actions that we know we are living in the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before the Lord, even if our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything." (I John 3:18-20)

Show your love for others and your fear of God by treating those with physical disabilities in a way that honors God. Understand that they are not helpless or in need of your pity either--just love and respect.

I encourage you to consider today how your actions reveal your fear and love of God--are you living in the truth?
