Caring

 

What do you care about?

Who do you care about?

What kind of people care for others?

 

Someone asked Jesus “Who should I care about?”

 

Good Samaritan

Need:

Man

2 robbers - weapons

judge - black robe

teacher – real teacher

priest - me

Oxford town supporter - scarf

Doctor – white coat

Food

Toilet roll

 

What is the arch enemy team for this town?

 

A Swindon town supporter was walking through Regent Circus, when he was set upon by a group of nasty people who beat him up etc.  Oh good, here comes a judge – he’ll help him. Etc.  Oh no, here is an Oxford Town supporter – depressed because he had just been thrashed by Swindon - he won’t help.  But he bandaged his head, bought him some food, (with toilet roll) and took him to hospital.

 

Jesus said the ones who care aren’t just the people we think should be good, but everyone can be a carer, no matter how unlikely they are.

 

Who does God care about?

 

 

Jesus said something really shocking – every time you care for others, you are caring for me.

 

Prayer.  Thank you that you care for us.  Help us to care for everyone, no matter who they are.
