“Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” Matthew 25:40
We’ve heard it said often that it’s far better to give than to receive. Such a theme wound through a film released back in the year 2000 called, “Pay it Forward”, which chronicled a 12 year old boy who decided to make the world a better place. He started a movement by doing good deeds, and then asking the recipient to simply “pay it forward” by doing something for someone else. The results were amazing in how the level of good deeds continually multiplied. After the films release, there was a wave of pay it forward living that in many ways changed the world. In essence,
We Should All Live Pay it Forward Lives
In Matthew 25:40 Jesus said that whatever we do for others who have a need, treat it as if we are doing it for Him. This puts a new perspective on the words, love your neighbor. To quote Anne Frank, “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
That’s a good one!!
