Who Are "the Least of These?" Compelling Reasons to Serve Jesus by Serving Others

It’s easy to love children until they whine, tantrum, or disobey. And the poor until they act ungrateful or entitled. Many of us are willing to care for the sick—until someone throws up on us. And we welcome the lonely until they get clingy and demanding. 

Nevertheless, God calls us to serve those who appear to bring nothing to the table. Matthew 25:40 says, “I tell you the truth when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!” 

In light of this command, we should ask ourselves, “Who is ‘the least of these’ God is calling me to love and serve?”
