Matthew 19:19 ‘Honour your father and your mother,’ and, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’

Besides the obvious “don’t kill, don’t cheat, don’t steal and don’t lie” Christ wants us to remember that we do need to think of others, not just our parents because other people need our help and support as well. There are so many people who do need help that it may be hard for us to see who we should help first… Well, start with your neighbours…

You will be surprised at how many people will accept help if you offer it; and then you may be equally surprised when others turn round and offer you help when they see you needing it.

Don’t wait to see if someone is “worthy” of being helped. Help them and show them that they are…
