Do it in word and in deed
Jesus said,
"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets" Matthew 7:12.
Question. Do you treat others the way you want to be treated? Even if you disagree with them?
Sadly many people in the world today do not treat people the way they want others to treat them.
Anne Frank a young Jewish girl in hiding from the Nazis in world war two wrote,
"Give of yourself, give as much as you can? And you can always, always give something, even if it is only kindness! If everyone were to do this and not be as mean with a kindly word, then there would be much more justice and love in the world. Give and you shall receive, much more than you would have ever thought possible. Give, give again and again, don't lose courage, keep it up and go on giving! No one has ever become poor from giving!" Anne Frank.
Sadly Anne Frank died in a Nazi concentration camp at the hands of evil men and women who knew nothing of the Love of God.
Today without exception, in every country in the world, there are people, (some even saying they are doing things in the name of God), that are treating people in horrible ways. Ways they would never want to be treated.
Let we who consider ourselves Christians, followers of Christ Jesus follow what Jesus said,
"So in everything,
do to others
what you would have them do to you,
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets"
Matthew 7:12.
Please don’t just think about it.
Do it, in word and in deed.
