Charity

Lady of Light

In Second Thessalonians,1:1-4, Paul says, "Paul and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonian in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth; So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure."

As you can see, Paul is writing to this church with the best wishes for them and he is pleased in how they have grown in faith and CHARITY towards one another. This makes me think of the role of CHARITY in my own life. I simply ask God to guide me in my giving and sharing whether it be people in the church, family, neighbors, or organizations.

Meditate on these verses today and think about how you are growing in faith and what your role in charity towards those in the church and in the world can be.

God bless you and have a great day!

Lady of Light
