“Everything we have is a gift of God’s grace. One of the best ways to show our gratitude is by loving the people who usually get overlooked. This means caring for our children in a Christ-like way, seeking what is best for them. It means getting  involved in the spiritual education of children inside and outside the church. It means paying attention to children in our neighborhoods and showing compassion to orphans and street children around the world. It also means visiting prisoners, helping people with disabilities, embracing people who are overwhelmed by difficult problems, showing hospitality to immigrants, and giving ourselves to people who have nothing to give us in return. To do such things is to receive the Son and the Father, honoring their greatness rather than our own.”
