Prayers to the Lord, our God. Happy F.E.A.S.T.
OLD TESTAMENT
Dear God, help me help others and therefore be close to you.
When we choose to be helpful we also choose to be a little selfless. If someone has truly done this, they will know that the feeling is inexpressible. And when this is cultivated we become more close to God.
NEW TESTAMENT
He sets an example by showing how being helpful is more close to being God like.
