Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... A few days ago, I was speaking to one of our church members and she told me they had been out to look at TV's. She said they were trying to decide between a 65" TV or 85". I have an 85" and it has been wonderful! So I told her how great I've found it to be even in a small room. (The wall in my small bed room is 12' and I sit 9' from the front of the TV and love it!) Later I was speaking to another person from our small church group. She told me she was replacing her TV with an 85". She was planning to purchase a smaller TV not realizing how much larger her wall is where the TV hangs. (I find people often fail to realize how much wall they have for TV and a much larger TV can go in that area than they think.) I said to this woman, "Oh ... tell Barbara what you are buying." She replied, "I can't do that." I said, "Why not?" She replied, "I don't care what she puts into her house." Instantly God showed me something. "We should care." Caring is loving. If we love a person we are interested in helping that person to make the best choice when we have had experience with a subject. I find I care, even about strangers. If I was at a TV section of a store, And I saw a total stranger looking at TV, I would likely tell that stranger my experience with larger screen TV's, not wanting that stranger to make a mistake and also wanting the "best" for that stranger. For I truly want the best for the other person ... even a stranger ... now God shows me to care is love toward that other person. 💥💥💥 2 Timothy 3 (Paul says) 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. They may even join a church but deny the scriptures or fail to care what happens to other people. We certainly don't want to be like that. And if we should find ourselves not caring, we should pray asking God to help us in this area and cause us to love that other person enough to not want that person to make a mistake that would hurt him. For it is God who teaches us to love others, even more than ourselves.
