Daily Devotions - Friday, March 21

Some Quotes, A Story and A Prayer

The quotes:
1. “Life is best spent in alleviating pain, assuaging distress, and promoting peace and joy. The service of man is more valuable than what you call ‘service of God.’ God has no need of your service. Please man, you please God.” (Sathya Sai Baba)

2. “There is no higher religion than human service. To work for the common good is the greatest creed.” (Albert Schweitzer)

3. “Service of God consists in what we do to our neighbor.” (Leo Baeck)

4. “They serve God well, who serve his creations.” (Caroline Norton)

A story: Read Luke 10: 25-37

A prayer: God of my life, may my caregiving radiate with compassion. Amen.
