Look Out For One Another

Galatians 6:10
"As we have therefore opportunity, let us do
good unto all men, especially unto them
who are of the household of faith."

    Paul encouraged the believers in Galatia to see anothers needs. This was based on the principle that whatever a man sows he will also reap, (Gal. 6:7). We will reap at the proper time if we don't give up. Paul places a lot of emphasis on being good, especially for those of the household of faith. Needs of others are important every day, and especially during times of disaster.
    We see on Television and Online, during and after a disaster Celebrities and other organizations appeal for money and supplies, and this calls us into action and many of us give a donation of some kind. There is nothing wrong with writing a check for 100.00 dollars of course. But consider this, is it unusual to write a check for 100.00 to be sent to third world countries instead of our own church's.
    Paul puts emphasis on the household of faith (the church). Is he wrong?  I say No! My friends I ask you to look at our churches around us. Some churches that once were full are now empty and closed. Some of our churches can't pay their bills, because of to much money being sent to third world countries, plus attendance has dropped in some churches because they can't afford to buy the materials they need to aid them in teaching the Word of God. My friends, again let me say there is nothing wrong with giving donations to any Charity of your choice. However, I will ask you to always put, Our God First. 
Amen!
