Reading: Matthew 25: 31-46
Reflection: I've always liked this story. Jesus reminding us that we are to treat others as if they were him. He reminds us that when we visited the sick or imprisoned, we visited him. When we gave food to the hungry or clothes to the naked, we did it to him. What a great lesson for us to remember! This story also reminds me of a song we sang when I was a camper at Mount Luther. We sing it occasionally now, but I remember singing it often when I was young. I share the words with you today to reflect on and determine ways you can treat others better than you do now. --Chad Hershberger, Camp Mount Luther Director Whatsoever You Do Written by Unknown; Copyright Unknown Chorus: What-so-ever you do to the least of my people, so you do unto me. When I was hungry, you gave me to eat; When I was thirsty, you gave me to drink. Now enter into the home of my Father. (Chorus) When I was weary, you helped find rest; When I was anxious, you calmed all my fears. Now enter into the home of my Father. (Chorus) When I was little, you taught me to read; When I was lonely, you gave me your love. Now enter into the home of my Father. (Chorus) When in a prison, you came to my cell; When on a sick bed, you cared for my needs. Now enter into the home of my Father. (Chorus) When I was laughed at, you stood by my side. When I was happy, you shared in my joy. Now enter into the home of my Father. (Chorus)
