Good morning ladies,
The word of the day is “antepenultimate.” Jesus always
seemed to find himself at important places with important people. What I love
about these passages is that he has never really impressed with the people that
seem to be those who are seen as important. He was only concerned about a
couple of things. In fact, Jesus was setting the stage to talk about some
important issues. The stuff that Jesus found to be important others often did
not.
But when you are invited, go and sit down
at the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend,
move up higher’; then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the
table with you.
~Lk 14:10
My question is: what are the things that you find to be
important in your life? Sometimes we get wrapped up in the way that we are
supposed to be and forget that Jesus only cares about the unseen. The Savior
cares more about your soul than anything else. He wants you to live a life that
is worthy of the kingdom of God. The cool part about that is we know we can
never earn it. So instead of trying to be important like the people in this
passage it would probably do is good to take the antepenultimate seat at the
banquet table, or third from the end. Always be humble and remember that the
Lord will put you exactly where you need to be.
Praying for you,
mo
