Stone hearts

Soul exhaustion sets in. Unexpected. 

Byproduct from observing those who scorn the cross. And reject the gospel.

Stone heart resistance catches my breath. 

So, I pray.

Why follow Jesus?

Why would someone risk their life to follow Jesus? Why give up all for Christ? 

Eternal life with Him. Of course. 

But so much more. 

Across the years, we move. Entering new places. Living and learning in various cultures where following Jesus may cost everything. 

And I consider a few of the many reasons for choosing Him. Why I can’t imagine life without my Lord. 

Now and forever.

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?
