I am always drawn to the bible verses. Sometimes I think they are difficult to grasp when they stand alone. That isn't always bad though because it makes you think. I can't recite scripture at all, can't tell you where I read it, but it still moves me.

Not saying that my take on it is correct, but it is kind of how I see it and what I think about...
Today's verse makes me think of an earlier verse (not sure which) where he sends his disciples out and says something to the effect of whoever welcomes you, welcomes me. Then another part of today's verse is both whatever you did or did not do to these brothers you did or did not do to me. They are sick, hungry, without clothes... He is talking about his Christian brothers/believers, but I believe it is a way to walk your path. I think they are kind of shocked, because they would NEVER have done that to their LORD, if they knew it was HIM. It kind of touches me in other ways. Like our tendency toward "selective love" too. The outside package should not lead us or gauge our kindness. Be kind to all. I know I go off track a bit:)

Thanks for sharing:)

Some days, my daily quotes - which are always the same four sources (gaspari, my franklin planner, spark people and K love) really inspire me and get me thinking. And some days, they leave me pondering - what on earth are they talking about. Today is one of those, HUH? Not sure I get all of them kind of days, you know.

Some of the daily bible verses, I just can't grasp - probably should really read up the verses ahead or behind them to understand it.

Then there are the philosophical ones from the planner and they really lose me...

Just curious how others think, fell, learn, get inspired, get mad from reading today's quotes.
