What in the world was I thinking?

     What in the world was I thinking when I learned that someone had lost a loved one? What in the world was I thinking when I learned that the lady down the way had fallen a broken her hip? What in the world was I thinking when I heard that a church members cancer had come back and she is only given a few short months to live?  What in the world was I thinking?  Did I remember Christ's word's, "What ever you do for the least of these my brothers, you do for me"? I am ashamed to admit it, but I didn't.  I've had to do some serious soul-searching today because I have learned that I have failed to live up to this, among others, command.  The lady with cancer was a very active member of my church until she got sick. When no one came to visit or try to help, she reached out to someone else.  Fortune smiled on her, in the face of someone from another church family. God blessed her with a support system and people willing to help when her own church family seems to have failed.  I am guilty before GOD.  What in the world was I thinking? "I don't know them that well. What can I do? I'm sure someone else is taking care of that.  I'm not part of that ministry team." Feeble excuse's come on adnauseum and I have no viable answer for my failure.  When I stand before JEHOVAH to answer for my life, as surely we all shall, what answer can I give that will appease His righteous anger?  Truthfully, there is none. I will only fall on my sinful face and beg mercy.  Blessedly, Christ will say,"He belongs to me, Father." What were you thinking? What will Christ say about you?
