Matthew 25:31-46
In this
Gospel, I believe Jesus is letting us know that he lives in each and every one
of us. When we are kind, and helpful and humble to each other, we are doing the
same for him. But when we are unkind and hurtful to one another, in the same
fashion, we are being unkind and hurtful to him. Jesus teaches us that we
should live our lives to grow closer to Him, and to strive to be like Him.
In a lot of
ways, especially living and working in New York City, you pass countless
numbers of people in need. While my heart feels for them, it is impossible to
help every single person you come across. That being said, it always leaves me
questioning which side would I fall on if I am not helping every single person
I come across when my encounters may be much higher than those in more rural
city. I think what we need to remember is that Jesus does not expect us to be
perfect, and as long as we strive to live our lives for Him and like Him then
we will have eternal life in the Kingdom of God.
