Read the Bible in a Year 
This evening read Romans 15:14--33 


You Can Help Others 


What Paul said to the Romans, I say to you, 

14 Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another (Rom. 15:14). 

Paul said those words because the Holy Spirit moved him and because he had observed Christians and how they were able to help others. I read what the Holy Spirit says about you and I have observed Christians over a quarter of a century of preaching and how they are able to help others, and I know that you can help others. For example, when someone dies, Christians will often say that they do not know what to say to the survivors. Yet, I have watched Christians with love in their hearts go to the survivors and just let the love flow from their hearts and they comforted the survivors more than those Christians could ever imagine. Therefore, do not withhold yourself from going to others and admonishing them, or comforting them, or doing whatever that person needs. Your goodness will help more than you may ever know.
