FINDING WORTH IN YOUR WORK/GLORIOUS GIVING
The above passage is in the context of Paul's farewell to the Ephesians Elders. In his farewell speech he makes a point in discussing leadership and the love of money by stating that when it comes to evaluating the church leaders, ”It is more blessed to give than to receive.” This verse reminds us of our duties for the support, care and protection of the flock-the weak, the oppressed and the needy. The question to a candidate for the priesthood in the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer (pp. 531-532) - is,”Will you do your best to pattern your life in accordance with the teachings of Christ, so that you may be a wholesome example to your people?” We need to ask the same question to ourselves. Can we do our best?
Dear God,
We thank you for your Word,”It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Teach us to serve you with our body, mind and spirit. Open our hearts in compassion to those who are in need of compassion and support. - Amen

About this Plan
My inspiration for this 30 days Devotional is from prolonged theological discourses on Justice. My burning desire is to see that the Church becomes catalyst to stop violence against the poor. I am also grateful to Organizations who work relentlessly to secure Justice for the poor.
