The Story of Jesus
The priest and the Levite pretended to keep God’s commandments,
but it was the Samaritan who really kept them. His heart was kind and
loving.
In taking care of the wounded stranger, he was showing love to
God as well as to man. For it pleases God to have us do good to one
[66]
another. We show our love for Him by being kind to those about us.
A kind, loving heart is worth more than all the riches in the world.
Those who live to do good show that they are children of God. They
are the ones who will dwell with Christ in His kingdom.
