Daily CLC Prayer verse

“One Sabbath, when he went to dine at the house of a ruler of the Pharisees, they were watching him carefully. And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy. And Jesus responded to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?” But they remained silent. Then he took him and healed him and sent him away. And he said to them, “Which of you, having a son or an ox that has fallen into a well on a Sabbath day, will not immediately pull him out?” And they could not reply to these things.”‭‭Luke‬ ‭14:1-6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because Jesus did what was right by God and what was wrong by society at the time. The world sets up a set of its own rules that it wants everyone to follow by to be considered “good or bad”. Jesus never concerns himself with those rules or even concerns himself with appearances in order to “bring his audience closer to God”. Jesus obeyed God period and let society work out what it needed to work out. Please pray that we and our friends are more concerned with obeying God today than we are with the rules of society. Please pray for Ken and Paul’s group.
