VERSE: Learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defendthe cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow. -- Isaiah 1:17 http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Isaiah+1:17
THOUGHT: "A man's got to take care of himself!" Yeah, we do have to beresponsible folks. But, part of being responsible, part of beingblessed -- at least as God sees it -- is to care for others, tostick up for the disadvantaged, and to intervene when someone elseis being exploited. After all, we are our "brother's and sister'skeeper!"
PRAYER: Remove the heart of selfishness, O God, that keeps me fromcaring for the downtrodden, abused, forgotten, and broken. Give meyour eyes of concern and Jesus' heart of compassion to see them andminister to them. In his name, the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.http://www.heartlight.org/cgi-shl/todaysverse.cgi?day=20080117
