Proverbs 3: 27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act. (NIV)
In the movie “Finding Nemo,” Dori and Marlin are about to be swallowed by a bird names Gerald who has scooped them up. In trying to swallow them, he gets choked. Nigel, a pelican, is perched with a bunch of pelicans watching this scene unfold. They agree that someone should go help, but no one moves. Finally, Nigel says, “Well don’t everyone go at once,” and flies off to help. The point is, he went off to help when no one else would. This happens to you and I every day. We see needs all around us and we have the power to act and do something about the need. Sometimes, doing this means that we are going to have to get out of our comfort zone and do something to meet a need, when perhaps we simply don’t want to . Let’s look at some ways this little passage can apply to our lives on a daily basis.
