Comments on Lesson Three

There is so much we can learn from this lesson, however, it isn't, or at least it shouldn't be anything new to any of us who call ourselves Christian. There is so much that all of us can do to reach out to others, especially the kids, but... I think mostly it is just easier to sit and discuss the problems than it is to get off of our duffs and do something. We all have been given different gifts and the way that may seem right for me may be completely different than what you can do. That doesn't mean that one way is better than the other, but various persons will respond better to some than to others.
Don't let this keep you from trying though. Gaining a person's trust and friendship is the first step. Without that, little else can be accomplished.
I encourage everyone to get out of their comfort zone and do what YOU can do, whether it be helping an elderly or handicapped person with chores and repairs around their house, or whether it is just caring or words of encouragement that you can give to someone. What ever we do, as long as it is done in God's name and for His glory, the blessings will be yours.
God bless,
Don
