Even with a little faith, you can make a big difference, but that big difference is in the small, everyday things of life that make a difference in human life and society (Luke 17:5-10). May we be thankful for the privilege and opportunity to serve God. “May we be motivated by love for God and not by a sense of self-importance or by a sense of greed for reward (C. H. Evans).”
Let us pray to God for compassionate and generous hearts: Our generous and loving God, your Son Jesus is risen from the dead and tells us to see the needs of the poor and to give them food and drink. May we recognize your Son in them. We ask this in the name of Jesus our Lord. Amen.

The prophet Amos points out that those who could have made a difference chose not to make a difference. Abundance had blinded them to the plight of those who had no abundance (Amos 6:1-8). In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man thought he had no responsibility for the poor, sick beggar named Lazarus; but in the end, the rich man was judged harshly because of neglect, indifference, and a lack of compassion (Luke 16:19-31).
Whom do we neglect for whom we could make a difference? I mean this in a personal way and social way as a Church, a community, and a nation. Does abundance blind us to the plight of those who no abundance? Do we heed the words of the prophet Amos? Do we heed the words of Jesus Christ?
