Are You a Good Neighbor?

He who despises his neighbor sins,
Proverbs 14:21a NASB1995

Despise: to regard with contempt, distaste, disgust, or disdain; scorn; loathe.
https://Dictionary.com

Is there someone in your life you really hate? Anyone you shun, go out of the way to avoid them? How about the snub – ignoring them, their existence? Aren’t those attitudes loathesome? And yet we are all guilty.

Remember the priest, the Levite, and the Samaritan in Luke 10:30-37? The Samaritan answered the question Jesus asked him, – “who proved to be a neighbor”, – with “the one who showed mercy.” Jesus then said, “Go and do the same.”

Jesus is our example of how to treat others.

🌹A man will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his words, And the deeds of a man’s hands will return to him.
Proverbs 12:14 NASB1995

Continually Seeking Him,
