He seeks you. Will you answer?

Lamentations 3:25  The LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. 

Luke 19:10  For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” 

Law and Prophets/two Commandments

                                              The Great Commandment

Matthew 22:34-40  But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 

35  And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. 

36  “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 

37  And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 

38  This is the great and first commandment. 

39  And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 

40  On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.” 

Humble yourself that you may be exalted

                                           The Parable of the Wedding Feast

Luke 14:7-11  Now he told a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the places of honor, saying to them, 

8  “When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in a place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you be invited by him, 

9  and he who invited you both will come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this person,’ and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place. 

10  But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you. 

11  For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
