Devotional
Sometimes along life's journey, people often fall into the traps of robbers. By traps, I mean those circumstances that rob from God’s best for our lives. Traps labeled; drug and alcohol addiction, divorce, sickness, and others alike. In God there is freedom. The scripture today comes from the story of The Good Samaritan. Please take time to read it. See if you can think of someone that you know of who maybe has been robbed, who has fallen into a trap on there journey of life. Perhaps you have a friend who comes from a divorced family and is feeling confused and hurt. Maybe someone who likes to drink or do drugs. Can you think of ways that you can reach out to them in love and help to bring them out of the trap they are in? A good place to start would be to let them know you care about them; perhaps invite them to your church or youth group.
