In a transactional industry, practicing honesty is one of the most effective ways to distinguish yourself. It might not always feel lucrative in the moment, but authenticity pays dividends in ways you might not think.
Jesus talked a lot about how we should identify ourselves. He said it wouldn’t be what we said we believed or all the good we hoped to do someday. He said we would identify ourselves simply by how we loved people.
Love isn’t something we fall into; love is someone we become.
“Faithful God, you care for us with compassion and firmness,
urging us to grow in love for you.
Through Christ, may we hear more deeply your call to be rooted in your way. Amen.” #lectionaryprayer
Walmart didn’t have the 2 small packs of chicken I requested, so they substituted. I kept wondering why the bag was so heavy...THEY GAVE ME 10 POUNDS OF CHICKEN! #imonlyoneperson#chickenfordays
Remember, deeper than the fact that God loves us is this: he is love. He wills nothing but what is good. That is his identity, and it explains why he loves individuals even when he is not pleased with them or loved by them in return. #LifeWithoutLack
Elusive God,
companion on the way,
you walk behind, beside, beyond;
you catch us unawares.
Break through the disillusionment and despair
clouding our vision,
that, with wide-eyed wonder,
we may find our way
and journey on
as messengers of your good news.

Of course, this isn't how the disciples experienced it https://t.co/ODdMO6bAon
