A Time for Quiet...

"...Am I my Brother's keeper..."


Brother's keeper
Genesis 4:8-10


After he killed his brother Abel, God asked Cain what had happened. Cain replied with an attempt to evade responsibility for what had happened, asking if he were his "brother's keeper."

Do we really care about others? 

Do words of comfort
cross our minds
when we find one in need.
Do acts of compassion fill our hearts
when we become a part
of those who cross our path...
or do they pass
by...unnoticed and uncomforted.

  1.  Lord...in the quietness of this moment...

grant me the courage to share
that which I have found in You.
Hold me close to those who need to be fed
and bring forth thy blessing on each...
each held firmly in Your stead.

Gary Roberts is a born again believer in Jesus Christ and one who cherishes study, words, and teaching. He is retired on disability, but looks to each day as a special time to study. Gary is currently a member of Fountain Baptist Church. Past relationships with Aversboro Road Baptist - Garner, NC and Holly Hill Baptist - Burlington, NC have been very rewarding with a teaching and card ministry. Thus, Gary's background is conservative Southern Baptist. His beliefs nor his teaching are politically motivated and only a love for the Lord and His Word is at the forefront.
