In Matthew 15 Jesus teaches that we honor him by serving those whom He called “the least of these” – feeding and clothing those in need and visiting those who are suffering. Conversely, He says that when we do not help others in need, we dishonor Him. But honoring others isn’t something we should do out of a sense of duty to “check a box.” It must start with an a genuine desire to serve others born from gratitude when we remember how Jesus demonstrated His love for His children by His sacrifices on our behalf.
