If We Are Able



If We Are Able
Author: Mark V. Markov

That if we are
If we are able and see
Someone in need
To always be there
And to help.

If we are able to clothe someone
If we are able to feed someone
If we are able to visit someone who is sick
If we are able to visit someone who is in prison

What ever one is able.
Or what ever the talent and skill is.
That we are able to do.
To show the love of God to someone in need
We should always try our best.

Because the best testimony in life
Is when you help someone in need,
In the name of Jesus Christ.
That helps the people to believe in God.

When they see
The love in us
The love for others,
It glorifies the Heavenly Father.

Matthew 5:16 (ESV)

16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
