Living for Others by Sandra Drescher

When my brother returned from visiting friends, he brought a recipe with him for homemade bread. He liked it so well that he wanted to learn to make it himself. His first loaves weren’t as good as those his friends had made, but he kept trying, and each time turned out better. Soon our family thought his bread was better than any other kind.

Doing good deeds is like baking bread. The more often I do them, the easier they become. When it becomes natural to do things for others, I can no longer be satisfied with living only for myself.

He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need (Eph. 4:28 NIV).

Thank You, Father, for the desire to do good deeds. Make them so much a part of my life that I would be uncomfortable not doing them amen.

AMEN and amen!  Couldn’t have said it better myself as we countdown to Thanksgiving Day!!  Remember Praying for These.

Holy hugs, kt
