My Brother's Keeper?
9.6.15
In the Genesis story of Cain
and Abel, Cain cynically answers God by saying: “Am I my brother’s keeper?” Cain obviously didn’t think
he was. He was being a wise guy. Today he might have said, how the heck do I
know - it’s not in my job description to keep track of him! Let’s be honest:
There are plenty of days when just “keeping” your own life running is about all
you feel you can handle! But God invites us to love, stand
up for, and kneel down in humility, to serve others. Yes, I am called to be my
brother’s . . . my neighbor’s . . . even my enemy’s keeper. So when you look
into the face of another, friend or not, what do you see? The things that
unit you, or the things that divide you? A Sunday Thought…Pastor Keith #minmchurch #churchpearland
