But a Samaritan on his journey came up to him, and when he saw ⌊the man⌋, he had compassion. He went over to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, ‘Take care of him. When I come back I’ll reimburse you for whatever extra you spend.’ (Luke 10:33-35 HCSB)
During a parable Jesus was talking about a good neighbor. This neighbor did not even know who this injured man was. Yet, he cared for the man and even payed his medical bills. If you found me on the road hurt would you care for me? You probably know me so it might cross your mind. Lets go a step farther. If you found a foreigner on the side of the road would you pay his medical bills?
Who did you leave on the road lately?
