Draw Near: Day 20

Philippians 4:15 .Listen View Philippians 4:15 in Reader .15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

Philippians 4:19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesu
Day 20
Caring

Paul knew the cost and comfort of such care. Philippi was the only church that saw his physical needs and relieved them. He did not have to ask for their help. They saw and reached out. Thus he promised them: And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

A Caring person moves to relieve the person's needs and touch him with his concern most imes without being asked. Caring does cost, but its rewards are eternal. We should look around today and really see the needs of others. Then may we relieve those needs in a practical and loving way. This brings blessing to both giver and receiver.

I remember when I was younger growing up my Dad he was a stern man a giving man with a heart of gold. When he saw someone in need he would give everything, and anything. He instilled that value in us to see the needs of others.
