In the story of the Good Samaritan, we often think about the actions we are expected to do for those in need. The story drives directly to our hearts, as we each find it difficult to spend time with others who are in need, pretending that we are too busy. If we are going to “be” the Good Samaritan, then must be willing to go out of our way to spend time with those in need. It is too easy to avoid the needs of others thinking we are too busy, but we can always do more.
