We had better get used to sharing our good things

Morning: Psalms 40, 54; Wisdom 6:12-23; Colossians 3:1-11

Evening: Psalm 51; Luke 7:1-17

Some religious leaders think they have a corner on God’s favour, but Jesus still heals the son of a foreigner, a Roman centurion who demonstrates great faith. Even today, some pious church folk think God’s grace is just for them ... But Jesus ushers in the renewal of humanity. In that renewal, there are no distinctions of race, religion, or rank ... Paul writes: “Christ is all and in all.” People may not like this idea but ... if we want to be whole someday, we had better get used to sharing good things instead of keeping them to ourselves.
