Jesus said, "There was a certain rich man who was splendidly clothed in purple and fine linen and who lived each day in luxury. At his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus who was covered with sores. As Lazarus lay there longing for scraps from the rich man's table, the dogs would come and lick his open sores."

β€”Luke 16:19-21 NLT

Key Thought​


This image is disgustingly repellent β€” in cornbread English, it makes me want to throw up. However, what makes us sick is probably the thought of having dogs licking Lazarus' open sores. Yes, like some other images in Scripture, this one is revolting. But, even more sickening to God β€” and it should be to us also β€” is a man who had so much but was doing nothing to help someone living nearby. Lazarus wasn't even looking for much. However, rather than anointing the sores with oil and bandaging Lazarus' wounds, the rich man spurned him, and only the dogs offered him comfort and companionship. Who is your Lazarus? And yes, who is my Lazarus?

Today's Prayer​


Father, help me to show compassion to everyone, but especially open my eyes to see the disadvantaged people you have placed in my path for me to treat with compassion. Stir my heart with your Spirit to respond when I see them. Strip away the calloused and dead skin that surrounds my heart and prevents compassion. Teach me the best way to show your love and grace. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Riches of this world will pass away in time but those things we have done for others in the name of the Lord will stand forever. Jesus said. I was hungry and you fed me, I was naked and you clothe me, I was sick and you came to visit me. Those are the things Jesus want us to do.
