Love your neighbor

The commandments given are plain. Straightforward. 

“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,
and with all your strength, and with all your mind,’
and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’.”
Luke 10:27

Love the Lord with all that I am. Yes! And love my neighbor. Of course.

But, uh, by the way. Who is my neighbor?

Wholehearted devotion

Tucked in the setting of another king’s ebbing allegiance. And his discernible drift from God. 

I see it. 

The verse often quoted. 

Serving as a clarion call for holy commitment. Wholehearted devotion. To the worship and ways of the Lord God Almighty.

Here it sits. Right in the middle of Hanani’s prophetic message. Calling out King Asa.

All we cannot see

The new year approaches.
And we’re looking sideways at the year that was. 

2020.
Planned calendar undone.
Change unexpected.
Grief unwanted.

Up close and personal reminders
of all we do not know. 
All we cannot see.
