SERVING A LIVING GOD

Image result for helping the needy
The whole purpose of humanity is to serve God. There are different ways in which we can serve God, and this includes preaching the word of God to the whole world, healing the sick and afflicted by the word of God, giving to the less privileged ones in the society; the poor and needy, orphans and motherless ones.

God created us in His image and likeness, and this makes every human being to be God's creature and a resemblance of God. By helping people, we serve God.

Jesus said in Matthew 25: 34 - 46, that He would put on His right side, those that fed Him when he was hungry, gave Him something to drink when He was thirsty, sheltered Him when He was homeless, clothed Him when He was naked, took care of Him in prison and cared for Him when He was sick. They would ask Him when they did these and He would tell them that as they did for the least of their brothers and sisters, they did for Him. As for those that didn't help the less privileged, they would go to eternal punishment. In order to fully serve God, we should also love our neighbors as ourselves.
