The kindness of a good samaritan

Luke 10:30-35

Many times we are hurt by love, but the love of God will not disappoint us.

But we may have to face many problems.

What kind of problems?

Communication / lies 

Differences in values, opinions and of different generations.

Problems with social media.

The love of God can cure everything

Luke 10:25

"Teacher what should I do to have eternal life?"

Luke 10:27

"Accept Jesus as your savior,...

Love your neighbors like yourself.

Questions: who are the neighbors?

Answer to the question is the story of the Good Samaritan.

The Jews and Samaritans do not associate with each other.

Americans are despised by the jews.

However a Samaritan helped instead of a Jew. the love shown here is beautiful.

Love is goodbye itself.

But when they are used wrongly by people it`s bad.

A knife is good when used for doing chores but when used wrongly will be used to kill people.

Love is not bad, not sad for sure..

Love that will not make us sad is the love from God

The Samaritan is shown as an example of the love of God.

Love is:

1) not sad because God is concerned and sympathizes with us.

Luke 10:30 to 33

Sympathy plus help and assistance means care and concern

Proverbs 27:10

Our God has never stopped loving us.

2) God is giving

Luke 10:34.. like the Good Samaritan.

The blessings from God his continuous

If we look into all the blessings, it`s like when you order something on the dining table. There`s so much it overflows.

Got cast about us and has a plan for all of us through blessings.

1 John 3:18

1 John 3:16 to 17

Proverbs 19:17

3) God always helps us

Luke 10:35

Seems that the world is bad, but it will never win over the love of God.

Our life may not look good now, but when completed it will be beautiful.

Life may be sad here and there, but it happens to make us stronger!

Jesus is the Good Samaritan and will continue to help us eternally.
