Read: Luke 10:25-37
Jesus replied and said, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and they stripped him and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead. And by chance a priest was going down on that road, and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. Likewise a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, who was on a journey, came upon him; and when he saw him, he felt compassion, and came to him and bandaged up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them; and he put him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn and took care of him. On the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I return I will repay you.’ Which of these three do you think proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell into the robbers’ hands? ” And he said, “The one who showed mercy toward him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do the same.”
Luke 10:30-37 NASB
Thoughts: I'm glad I am relaxing this challenge. When I have my mind on other scriptures and spiritual matters, it is important to go there. But this challenge has helped me in organized study for sure. I hadnt journaled my thoughts concerning scriptures in awhile.
Being a good neighbor means mercy, even to those we see as less as ourselves or are angry at. I always pray to have eyes to see as God sees, because then I get motivated to witness to others and help others I see need help. When time runs out, people are going to Heaven or Hell. I want to be able to help people make that choice for eternal life.
