Jesus called the man a Samaritan, we were the ones who labeled him 'good.' Why? Hmm!
Most of us can probably remember as kids the times when our parents would ask us to assist them in something (cooking, cleaning, repair, building, etc.), and although we didn't do a whole lot we were present to see what needed to be done and how. Later in life we realized it was a teaching moment we needed for present day life. The bible shows us how Jesus went about building the kingdom of God and teaching His disciples to continue the work. God includes us (disciples) in His kingdom building work as well. Not because the job can't be done without our help, but because through our help we become more like Christ - who is still at work trying to save this world. Today may be a hard-hat day.
Until tomorrow...
