"But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled along, came down to where he was; and when he saw him, he was moved with pity and sympathy for him, and went to him and dressed his wounds, pouring on them oil and wine. Then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn and took care of him." -Luke 10:33-34 (AMP)
Travels, whether for work or pleasure, can be stressful with preparations before leaving and then the actual journey. At certain times of the year, millions of people are traveling at the same time, increasing the need for caution and attention to safety. These busy travel times also give us many opportunities to show God's love and be witnesses for Him!
The story of the "Good Samaritan" (Luke 10:30-38), reminds us to be good neighbors to all those that we encounter throughout our journeys. Our witness may be simple acts of kindness, kind words, or smiles to fellow travelers. Our witness may be in being a courteous driver on the highway or seat companion on a plane, train, or bus. Our witness may be in assisting someone that has experienced difficulties of some kind while on their own journey. Whatever opportunity presents itself, God calls us to act in neighborly love.
Going on a trip? Show God's love by being pleasant and kind to fellow travelers and others you meet along the journey!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for protecting me and traveling with me wherever I may go. Please help me to show Your love and be a "good Samaritan" to all those that I encounter on my journeys so that they may see Your glory through me. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
