Mark - Matthew 22

(v14)"For many are called, but few are chosen." Jesus' parable of the Wedding Dinner again teaches us that we are welcome. His instructions are simple,(v37)"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind. This is the first and greatest commandment." Secondly He tells us love your neighbor as much as you love yourself. Everything begins with these two actions and these are actions. That for me means I must act and be a participant in this journey. Sitting on the sidelines is not an option, getting out of myself is a necessity! Yesterday we delivered meals for the coming Christmas holiday. For years during this time of year I always thought that doing something for others would be a good way to start off the season. It was an awesome experience and sharing it with my wife and children made it all the better. The key is making that a part of my everday life-love my neighbor as myself. There will always be a need, whether it be December or some other time of year and I'm given the opportunity to share of myself in being their for others.
