Friends,
We started last week looking at the parable of the Good Samaritan and the important question – who is my neighbor? I wanted today to challenge us to look at the neighbors we live with. What I mean is – before we can love our neighbor next door and around town, we need to do the best we can to love our immediate family under one roof. How we treat our spouses, children, etc. is more important than how we treat others if we look at the direct language of 1 Timothy 5:8.
This morning I challenged the congregation…and I want to challenge you…each day this week (Sunday thru Saturday) I want you to take a moment and hug each member of your household and then tell them that you love them. That’s right, every person and every day, hug them and tell them you love them. Blessings…Pastor Bryon.
