And who is my neighbour? - Luke 10:29
Jesus told a story of an injured person by the roadside and many passed by without giving any attention nor assistance except a good Samaritan who carried the injured person into the hotel and paid for all the expenses with the promise to the Inn-keeper that he will repay all extra on this next trip.

The Samaritan is the best neighbour one can have. A good neighbour is one who cares. One who do not miss any opportunity to serve for he served in the Name of the Lord. We do know of neighbours who spent their time quarrelling with each other. There are also those who would cause noise pollution to the extend that police reports were made. We know that having good neighbours is one great pulling factor to remain where we are.
Thus, today, we must continue to be a responsible citizen to be a good neighbour. Together we can build a trusting neighbourhood of peace and harmony. Any person who passes by us is a neighbour. We are to love them as ourselves. We do unto our Lord what we do to our neighbour. So chin up and serve our Lord. Nothing is too insignificant nor surmountable in God's work for in Him everything is possible.

Our love for Christ is only as real as our love for our neighbour.
