ARE YOU UNINVOLVED?
Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s keeper?” Genesis 4:9
Much of the evil in the world can be ascribed to uninvolvement in the face of distress in the lives of our fellow man. For a number of reasons, there are so many people who are inclined to follow the example of the priest and the Levite in the parable of the Good Samaritan. They prefer “passing on the other side,” instead of feeling deeply sorry for the victim of the crime.
Their reasons may differ and their attitudes may be ascribed to embarrassment, inability or a fear of rejection. More often than not, they are so involved with their own affairs, or their own problems, that they do not have time to get involved with other people’s problems. Even worse, they do not even notice the other person’s distress.
Jesus gave us two commandments that He emphasized as the most important. The one is to love God with your entire being, and the other is to love your neighbor as yourself. A Christian cannot ignore his fellow man. Uninvolvement has no place in the Christian Faith and your concern for the welfare of your fellow man is barometer of your love for God.
It does not require much effort to notice the distress in today’s world. Reach out a helping hand to others and experience the presence of God in your service done in His name.
Prayer :
Use me, Lord, to serve amongst my fellow man.
Amen
