Luke 10:25-37
Get Off Your Donkey

GRACE & TRUTH MOMENT: The truth is, we were broken on the road. Grace is that Jesus didn’t pass us by. He stopped, showed mercy, and gave us what we could never deserve.

HOPE SHOT: “For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.” (Philippians 4:13, NLT)

PRACTICAL STEPS:

  • See people, don’t size them up: Loving your neighbor begins with seeing people as people—not problems to avoid or tasks to ignore.
  • Let compassion interrupt your schedule: Love often shows up as an interruption. Ask: Am I willing to be inconvenienced for the sake of mercy?
  • Respond with what you have, not what you wish you had: Loving your neighbor doesn’t require perfection—just availability and obedience with what’s in your hands right now.
