Reflections with Andy - Luke 16: 19-31 - Looking Past People

This parable of the rich man and Lazarus reminds us how easy it is to overlook people right in front of us. The rich man had everything but missed what mattered most — compassion. He saw Lazarus every day but never really saw him, and even in eternity, his heart hadn’t changed. Jesus uses this story to challenge how we view others and what we value. Every person — whether a CEO, a custodian, a cashier, or a neighbor — bears the image of God and is loved deeply by Him. Today, let’s open our eyes to the people we might normally pass by and love them the way God loves us — freely, fully, and without distinction.
