"What is the sign of the "saved"? Speaking in tongues? Baptism? Their Biblical scholarship? Their willingness to go to foreign lands? Their ability to amass an audience and preach? Their skillful pens and hope-filled volumes? Their great miracles? No. The sign of the saved is their love for the least." (Max Lucado, "And the Angels Were Silent")"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'
"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' (Matthew 25:37-40)

It's so easy to lose our way and yet God keeps it so simple for us.
Pastor Jim, why do you think we feel the need to complicate such a simple request from God?
