Luke 10:29-37 (ESV) But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, & he fell among robbers, who stripped him & beat him & departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road, & when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place & saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, & when he saw him, he had compassion. He went to him & bound up his wounds, pouring on oil & wine. Then he set him on his own animal & brought him to an inn & took care of him. & the next day he took out two denarii & gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him, & whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.’ Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” & Jesus said to him, “You go, & do likewise.” Romans 8:28 All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.. —When we are willing to love like Jesus, no problems will overwhelm us, because we know all things work to the good of those called by Him to His purpose! Sometimes we entangle ourselves with our purpose! Seek 1st His kingdom! Love Mel
