Seed Thoughts

By J. W. Lowe

WE should not meddle with other people's affairs, in the sense of meddling, but we should have a friendly interest in the welfare of all around us.

Narrow, short-sighted, and selfish is he who is concerned only in his own personal matters, having no thought for the general prosperity of others.

Every intelligent human being is bound by the common ties of humanity to exercise genuine interest in others, even to the point of considering himself his brother's keeper.

Jesus gave Himself for the welfare and salvation of all; and if we are truly His followers, we will manifest the same interest in all, that He manifested.

And in all this loving service to our fellows, we are at the same time working out our own salvation. In fact, there is no salvation for us if we neglect our duty to others.
