"I'm NOT Cold!!"
8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.” While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
Genesis 4:8-9 NIV
Cain said what he said because he didn't want to have any responsibility towards his brother, and he was trying to be sarcastic too...But the truth is, we are our brother's keeper (sister's too).
God does not want us walking on this earth, COLD HEARTED, (though the love of many has waxed cold- Matt 24:12 KJV).
God does not want us walking around on this earth NOT caring about each other, looking the other way and ignoring the fact that our sister or brother could possibly be in trouble.
We should care, because what if it was us, or a family member, or close friend?
Caring about one another is powerful. When we really care, caring can get some amazing things done for that other person who may or may not be in a position to help themselves at that moment.
In Rom 5:6 NCV The bible says, God sent Jesus to help us when we were unable to help ourselves....
Notice what it DIDN'T say: It DIDN'T say...He waited to check out our story, to see if we were lying or being truthful....BUT HE SENT JESUS, KNOWING that no matter what is determined later, we needed help that was BEYOND OUR OWN ABILITY in that moment.
Because when the devil is really attacking...Often times, He will go for the person's mind 1st...It's an attack on their mental health 1st, making mental illness- the silent killer of our people.
So, God sent Jesus for us at a time when there was no social media, no Google to search etc...He sent Jesus and called it love, NOT caring...He called it, LOVE.
He didn't ignore what He heard, He didn't critique what He saw, and even though it might have been a set up, a plot...He still sent Jesus in to assist. God was NOT cold when we needed help.
So, Who are we to ever be COLD towards a possible situation that is occurring before our eyes; regardless of the outcome?
Think About It!!
Until Next Sunday.
