My coffee of choice this morning is Door County Cinnamon Sugar Biscotti. The coffee is going down smooth and it killed the taste of this new health cereal my wife purchased. If this is healthy why does it taste so bad?
It wasn't too long ago when a friend of mine needed a ride home from church. He asked several people if they were "going his way'"? To be honest no one lived in that direction and it would be out of their way to take him home. Just then another guy said "I am going that way". I knew that the direction he would be headed was just the opposite of where he really needed to be. What he was doing was "going the extra mile for someone." The potential rider asked "are you sure?" He was told "no problem."
The rescuer was not counting the cost. He saw an opportunity to serve and never gave it a second thought.
There is a popular television show that puts people in different situations and then video tapes their responses. It is called "What Would You do?"
So with the guy who needed a ride? What would you do?
Luke 3:10-11 And the crowds asked him, “What then shall we do?” And he answered them, “Whoever has two tunics is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.”
God bless,
Marty
