Lk14

Do we do good to those who have no way of paying us back? Do we limit our kindness only to those who can reciprocate?

Jesus invited us to feast at His banquet. Not because we deserve it or because we have somehow earned His favor, but rather because we actually don't deserve it. We are the poor, maimed, blind and lame! We are the ones in need. We are also the ones who continue to make excuses. We are the ones who are too "busy" for God's kingdom.

Yesterday I was challenged by a particular line in the sermon. Cody said, "What radical change has Jesus brought into your life since you have believed?" If we struggle to have an answer to this question, we might not get it yet. Jesus has come to bring about "change" in all of our lives. The first step is belief! It is just the first step.

Following is the hard part. Follow Jesus today.
