My Lenten Devotional (Thursday, February 28, 2013)

Gospel reading: Luke 16:19-31


"There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores."   --- Luke 16:19-21

My offering to God:

I will help feed the hungry, whether by giving to a charitable organization, volunteering at a soup kitchen, giving to a beggar in the street or taking a meal to somebody whom I know is struggling. I will eat sparingly as I reflect on those who have very little or nothing at all to eat.
