Indeed you do love all the brothers and sisters throughout Macedonia. But we urge
you, beloved, to do so more and more,
His children vividly remember the days George spent in the hospital before his death. The
president of the hospital paid him a visit; they spoke as though they were old friends. A few
minutes later one of the janitors came to visit George. They too had a nice visit. When the janitor
left, one of George's children said to him, "Dad, did you realize that you treated the president of
the hospital and the janitor just alike?"
George smiled and chuckled at the remark. "Let me ask you something," he said, "if the president
left for two weeks and the janitor left for two weeks, which one do you think would be missed the
most?"
May all the people we come in contact with sense our Christian love.
(1 Thessalonians 4:10
NRSV)
James Moore tells about a man named George. George was a peacemaker with a big heart and
wonderful sense of humor. George claims he was, "so tenderhearted that he cried at supermarket
openings!" Everyone loved George at church and he was respected at the hospital where he
worked. The reason why so many people loved George was because he was always kind and
respectful to everyone he met.
Dear God, help me to develop my love, so that it will touch many. Amen.
