Gospel of Matthew Ch 23 v- Five thru Eight

5 All their works are performed to be seen. They widen their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels. 6 They love places of honor at banquets, seats of honor in synagogues, 7 greetings in marketplaces, and the salutation ‘Rabbi.’ 8 As for you, do not be called ‘Rabbi.’ You have but one teacher, and you are all brothers.

 

When you have your heart in the right place, you care not what is seen as the charity you conduct whether it’s goodwill for a family begging on the corner at a Walmart or the neighbor next door who needs a meal you cook and share as absolute love generosity is a state of mind where alms giving doesn’t have restraints or rewards except what your Heavenly Father sees as a natural case of kindness. This type of salutation from God has more meaning than any other type of recognition that the world as a whole craves openly as the stage of life. We want to be front and center patted on the back so to speak as the prize for being good at something we love to share as our honor. Really, God wants us to share with others how easy charity truly is and should be conducted with the zeal of truth desiring nothing more than the smiles of being served. I am reminded of the Letter of Second Timothy in Chapter Two versus 19 thru 22;

 

Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands, bearing this inscription, “The Lord knows those who are his”; and, “Let everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord avoid evil.” In a large household there are vessels not only of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for lofty and others for humble use. If anyone cleanses himself of these things, he will be a vessel for lofty use, dedicated, beneficial to the master of the house, ready for every good work. So, turn from youthful desires and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord with purity of heart. To be in a state of absolute hope of sharing His grace His forgiveness Life Eternal now. Amen.

 

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. Silence for the prayers of others dealing with the war in Ukraine. In the Holy Spirit we pray our brothers in Kairos especially a prayer for our men in blue. We pray for Holy Mother Church. We pray for the intersession of our Holy Mother for the sister of Jackie her name is Loreen. Daily prayers for our neighbor Thelma. Prayers for a friend and his wife for a baby to be born. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Rabbi called be not**

 

Pharisees wants others to see works theirs performed

Phylacteries widen and lengthen tassels theirs

Banquet places love honor seat desires to keep them informed

Rabbi salutations marketplace greeting they truly dues care

 

You all Jesus said with care

Rabbi called be not

Teacher one have you to prepare

Brothers all are you spot
