Lent: Day Twenty-Seven


I'm reading the book, "Crazy Love," by Francis Chan. It's a great book about giving beyond what you think you can give. And though I'll probably share more that I've learned from it later, I wanted to share just a tidbit today.

In chapter 7, Chan examines Matthew 25, which we looked at a few days ago. Let's look at verses 37-40 again:

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

In the book, Chan asked a great question after citing these verses. I'll leave it with you today as we consider the ministry of Living Water International:

How would my life change if I actually thought of each person I came into contact with as Christ?
