Feed the hungry,
and help those in trouble.
Then your light will shine out from the darkness,
and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon.
The LORD will guide you continually,
giving you water when you are dry
and restoring your strength.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like an ever-flowing spring.
Some of you will rebuild the deserted ruins of your cities.
Then you will be known as a rebuilder of walls
and a restorer of homes."
God wants us to be agents of blessing in this world, especially to those who are less fortunate. Is there any way that you can ease someone's burden today? Pray for an opportunity to do it. Then look for God to bless you. As you do good, you will be blessed with goodness. We get watered too, as the healing streams run through us to others.
