And He also went on to say to the
one who had invited Him, “When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your
friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, otherwise they
may also invite you in return and that will be your repayment. But when you give a reception, invite the
poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and
you will be blessed, since they do not have the means to repay you; for
you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”
Many of us know that when we give with no expectation of
repayment, that God will bless that motive.
But did you hear what Jesus says now?
He says that we will be blessed at the resurrection of the
righteous. We will be blessed in the
presence of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
And in the presence of Job, Daniel and Elijah. God desires to bless us in front of His whole
family. What a blessing it is for us to
give with the hope of making another’s life whole.
Daily Prayer: Christ
Jesus, You make it fun to be righteous.
When we turn our dark heart to the light, the whole room is lit up and
the glory of God shown. Permit us to
live our life this way. In Your holy
name I pray Amen.
