Was there a time that you helped somebody not because you really wanted to help but simply you are expecting something in return? Or have you asked yourself, "What's in it for me, if I help you?" In the Parable of Good Samaritan, the Samaritan helped a man who was robbed. He helped him without thinking he would have something in return. Just like the Good Samaritan, we help because that is what God asked us to do. We help because God Himself helped us first by saving us from death through Jesus Christ. By helping others, we are showing the spitting image of Jesus Himself through our actions.
Prayer
Lord,
Help me try not asking people to give me something in return for helping them. Let me just help people for you Lord. Give me the chance to help other people in need Lord. And please let me be a big blessing to other people. in Jesus Name, I pray, Amen.
"In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets."
Matthew 7:12
