You Have To Share!

"You have to share!" I've said these words countless times, but this time it was different.  It was those two words, "have to" that arrested my attention. I felt as though I was implying, "Yes, it's yours and you are entitled to it, but I'm going to guilt you into loving someone out of obligation."  And then God said, "No, you get to share!"  That child had an opportunity to experience the joy of giving and serving another person in love, but he didn't see it from that perspective and quite often neither do we. Jesus said if we do it to the least of these we  do it unto Him. Last week I was walking, caring three bags and a toddler who forgets she can walk at the most inconvenient times. A random person carried one of my bags for me. That's a really small thing, but one that will probably stay with me. Look around you! There are people all over that are in need of things or love and just wish you would share.
