The Least of These

"The Least of These"
This bible verse just keeps coming up every time I turn around. "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'" [Matt 25:40]
I think it's God's way of telling me to get going. Life isn't about me, it's about helping those around me as if they were God himself. As Francis Chan puts it, we are only extras in God's movie on Earth. We get like 2/5ths of a second to live and that little millisecond of time, that is our lives, needs to be focused on Him.
I feel like a lot of times, just from personal experience when you start doing what God wants you to do that's when the devil fights his hardest to get you to stop. He plants confusion in your life, and unsure thoughts, and different obstacles for different people to slow us down, but we just need to keep our eyes on the prize! The Lord is not the author of confusion, [1 Cor 14:33], we as Christians know this, and we also know that the devil is indeed the father of lies [John 8:44]. Our biggest goal should not be to let him hinder us and stop us from fulfilling our part in God's ultimate plan.
When we truly start to focus on God, He puts a burden on our hearts for those that are broken, sick, needy, confused. So many people are in these situations. People that we come in contact with daily. I just saw this kid's status, and he was so confused about Christianity in general, it made me want to sit him down and just tell him everything I know, in hope that it would help. Seeing things like that make you want to help people in both the physical and understanding things spiritually sense. Just going out and doing it seems to be the more difficult part, but obviously, it is necessary.
In the end, He will separate those who loved Him by loving others--the sheep on his right hand side, from those who did not help the needy--the goats on His left hand side. [Matt 25:31-46]
I definitely want to be at His right hand. I pray that the devil, nor my selfish nature will get in the way of God's plan and my duty to Him and His children.
