Luke 10, 365 DAYS OF LOVE #3: NASTY CARDBOARD

Passage: Jesus Sends Out the Seventy Two, The Parable of the Good Samaritan, At the Home of Martha and Mary


Memory Verse: "Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? 14But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. 'Do not fear what they fear; do not be frightened'" -1 Peter 3:14


Notes: (v.1-24) Jesus sent out seventy two to every town and place; "the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few."
"He who listens to you listens to me; he who rejects you rejects me; but he who rejects me rejects him who sent me."
Jesus had given them authority to "trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; HOWEVER, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."
"Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and hear what you hear but did not hear it."
-(v.25-37) An expert in the law asked Jesus what he must do to inherit eternal life. Jesus replied, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself."
When asked who his neighbor was, Jesus told the parable of the good samaritan:
A man, on his way to Jericho, was attacked and stripped by robbers who beat him and went away. 3 people crossed his way:
1. PRIEST: passed by the other side when he saw the man
2. LEVITE: Also passed to the other side.
3. SAMARITAN: took pity on him and bandaged his wounds. He then took him to an inn and paid for his care. He told the innkeeper to look after him, taking up the pay for any extra expense.
Jesus said, "Go and do likewise."
Talk about acting in LOVE!

Act of LOVE: I had art today, and since I'm painting from a stand, I have to get pieces of cardboard to set on the easel so that my picture doesn't fall off. Normally, I try and get the nice, perfectly-sized cardboard, but today I looked for the worst piece of cardboard (it had crusted paint and was slightly molding..HAHA..!) so that the other painters could have [clean] nicely-shaped cardboard pieces.
