Sermons About Care-giving
Welcoming Jesus
God calls each of us to nurture and protect those God entrusts to our care for as long as they are in our care—and even those we never meet, such as the abandoned children of Haiti or the war victims about whom Nuhad Tomeh told us Thursday when he visited us. God fills each of us with talents and skills for welcoming those who need us. We can wipe a tear--bandage a scraped knee--comfort a scraped heart--tutor a struggling student—encourage a struggling adult--hold a hand—offer a hand-up--give a smile--pray for God’s children everywhere. Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not me, but the one who sent me.
