VERSE:
Learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend
the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.
-- Isaiah 1:17

THOUGHT:
"A man's got to take care of himself!" Yeah, we do have to be
responsible folks. But, part of being responsible, part of being
blessed -- at least as God sees it -- is to care for others, to
stick up for the disadvantaged, and to intervene when someone else
is being exploited. After all, we are our "brother's and sister's
keeper!"
PRAYER:
Remove the heart of selfishness, O God, that keeps me from
caring for the downtrodden, abused, forgotten, and broken. Give me
your eyes of concern and Jesus' heart of compassion to see them and
minister to them. In his name, the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
