Jesus says that when he returns he will judge all nations and that what we do for others we do for God. That is, we show our love for God by loving others. By being compassionate and helping those in need, we will enter heaven. If we don’t, we will be condemned to eternal punishment. Some may volunteer for prison ministry. Some may take care of the elderly. And some may work in a soup kitchen. We don’t have to do everything, but we each must use our unique talents to love God by serving others.
Lord, help me to always be compassionate and help those in need.
