Life is like the Jericho road: It is full of perils. Each of us travel the road and each Is beset by Its dangers and temp tations. How often on the road way of life we are tempted to pass by those in need. This temptation may root in our fears. We may feel the urge to play the part of the good Samaritan, and yet be tempted by Indifference to pass on, saying, it is too much trouble. It may be a long time since we were tempted to commit an open evil deed, but most of us, though urged by the spirit w ithin to be better than we are, have all too often yielded to the temptation to let pride, complacency, and self-satisfaction keep us from doing the good we know we ought to do. The good Samaritan had com passion. May we too, have com passion and yield to that inner urge to make our lives a source of helpfulness and blessing, as we walk the Jericho road of life. - Amen.
