Theme: God loves it when I help others
Bible Verse: Help all who are weak, and be patient with everyone. -1 Thessalonians 5:14
Bible Story: Read Luke 10:25-37 – The Good Samaritan
The story of a good Samaritan helping a Jew. Jews and Samaritans were not the best of friends during New Testament times. There was a Jewish man walking down the road from Jerusalem to Jericho and suddenly 5 robbers attacked the Jewish man. They took all his money, stripped him of his clothes, beat him up and went away. They left him half dead and bloody. A Priest and a Levite walked by the Jew. The Samaritan, as he traveled came where the man was; when he saw him, he took pity on him, He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. “Look after him,” he said and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have. He didn’t just leave him with the innkeeper but he said I WILL RETURN and REIMBURSE YOU for any Extra Expense you may have. Jesus calls us to "Go and do likewise"
