Do Right and Wait

And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.

Luke 14:14

Reading:

Luke 14:7-24

What do I know about humbling myself?

What shall I do with my pride?

Do I seek out those on the low end of the social ladder?

Can I wait for my reward, even till the resurrection of the just?

On what basis do I ask God to excuse me from His calls to me?

Will I allow God’s priorities to rearrange my own?

“And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready” (Luke 14:17).

[The Scriptures say in Luke 14:11 -- Whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased]
from Luke 14:11

I Am His

The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

Psalm 24:1

Reading:

Psalm 15; 24

“LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?” (Psalm 15:1).

Exactly! Who?

Is my heart set and my mind fixed and my energy focused on pleasing God?

Why do I not have these checklists before me as constant reminders?

Am I one of those that seek God?
