VISITING WITH FRIENDS

Scripture: James 1:27 “Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.”  

    The text verse tells us that pure religion and undefiled before God is to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction.  I think it is the “Christian” thing to do to visit those who are less fortunate than we are.  To try to help those who are afflicted with pains and diseases that torment them daily. To try to reach out to those who are many times forgotten and try to be a blessing to them.  Many are feeble, some are feebleminded, but we must try to reach out to them in their time of need.
    One of the most rewarding ministries that you can get involved in is a ministry of helping those who cannot help themselves.  Daily they need someone to do little things like read to them, help them change their clothes, help them with their meals and sometimes just to sit and talk.  They long for someone to show them attention and when you get involved in trying to help them you get a blessing and you become a blessing!
    What a joy to see their faces light up as you sing one of their favorite songs! What a thrill to hear them sing along with you!  What a blessing to be able to bring a little joy into their lives day by day!  There is not a more rewarding ministry!  The Lord wants us to help!  What about you?  Will you reach out and help those often forgotten folk in this old world?
