"Do we really believe that Jesus expects us to go and do likewise? Jesus said we are to love God with all our heart, soul and mind and to love our neighbor as ourselves. When someone asked Him who our neighbor is, Jesus responded with the parable of the Good Samaritan. He told how the Samaritan put his own needs and agenda aside in order to help a stranger. Jesus told his followers to "go and do likewise". (Luke 10:25-37 In Shane Claiborne's book, the Irresistible Revolution, Claiborne poses the question, "What if Jesus really meant what he said?" Do I really believe that Jesus expects me to "go and do likewise" to others – even strangers – at my age (old or young) and with my busy schedule? Do we really believe? "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." Ann Frank. ---David Fincher President, Greater Atlanta Christian Schools |
