In Israel today, there live in the mountains a few hundred Samaritans. But in modern Western culture, the Samaritan shortage is even more acute. There's a real absence of Good Samaritans. Most people are too much into themselves that the virtues of duty, sacrifice, heroism, and laying down one's life for another count for very little. In New York City, a mailman was shot by a sniper. He went into a building lobby dripping blood but was ordered out because he was staining the floor. In Oklahoma City, a woman unexpectedly gave birth on a sidewalk; bystanders turned away and a nearby hotel refused the woman a blanket. In Dayton, Ohio, several people watched a woman drive her car into the Miami River. The woman screamed that she couldn't swim. The people didn't do a thing. She drowned. Why? It wasn't their business. Is that you? Are you so into your own walk that you won't leave it to be like Messiah? You see - you are to be the Good Samaritans of this world. Start today - by reaching out, blessing, or helping a stranger in need.
From Message #1068 - The Samaritan Miracle
Read about the Good Samaritan today. Then find something that you can do to be a blessing to someone in need.
Scripture: Luke 10:25-37
