Loved To Love
April 9, 2014

Read: Deuteronomy 10:12-22

Therefore love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. —Deuteronomy 10:19

Bible in a Year:
1 Samuel 13-14; Luke 10:1-24

Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s life was at risk every day he stayed in Hitler’s Germany, but he stayed nonetheless. I imagine he shared the apostle Paul’s view that being in heaven was his heart’s desire, but staying where he was needed was God’s present purpose (Phil. 1:21). So stay he did; as a pastor he offered clandestine worship services and resisted the evil regime under Hitler.

Despite the daily danger, Bonhoeffer penned Life Together—a book on hospitality as ministry. He put this principle to the test when he lived and worked in a monastic community and when he was imprisoned. Every meal, every task, and every conversation, Bonhoeffer taught, was an opportunity to show Christ to others, even under great stress or strain.

We read in Deuteronomy that just as God ministered to the Israelites who were leaving Egypt, He instructed them to imitate Him by loving and hosting strangers and widows (10:18-19; Ex. 22:21-22). We too are loved by God and empowered by His Spirit to serve Him by serving others in countless ways each day through kind words and actions.

Who on our daily journey seems lonely or lost? We can trust the Lord to enable us to bring them hope and compassion as we live and labor together for Him.

That I may serve Him with a full surrender,
My life a crucible, His eye the test,
Each hour a gift from Him, the gracious Sender,
Each day a pledge to give to Christ my best. —Anon.

The more we understand God’s love for us the more love we’ll show to others.

OUR TROOPS ROCK!!!!!!!

"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

It snowed last night, but just a dusting. Should warm up tomorrow and all the new stuff be gone!

Hi Kathy - Seems I'm a cook.

[PROCON]

Woo-Hoo Ma, thanks for tonight’s Canteen!

Permission Granted!

Evening, Kathy.

Microwave? No way! I hate microwaves!

You Are a Cook

You are a force in the kitchen, and you're good at thinking on your toes during meal preparation.
While you know how to follow a complicated recipe, you tend to go with your intuition. You know just what a dish is lacking.

When it comes to making food, you are impatient and active. You like to be in there tasting and modifying.
You can bake, but it's not exactly you're passion. You don't like having to wait to see how something turns out!

[AZamericonnie]

You Are Both a Cook and a Baker

You're the type who can do it all in the kitchen, and you're always expanding your skill set.
You aren't too loyal to one cooking method or cuisine. You love to mix it up and experiment.

You may consider yourself a bit of a foodie and amateur chef. You aren't intimidated by fancy food.
You are the ultimate improviser in the kitchen. You can usually whip up something amazing from whatever you have on hand.

Are You a Cook or a Baker?

[SandRat]

I've been watching you,...I know the source of all your computer troubles.

While I’ve been known to make ash cakes and a passable
corn bread, my buttermilk buscuits are better but
I’m known far and wide for my Ham and pinto beans!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...a better commute today? No accidents?

A dusting of snow for us, and it never warmed up so it is still there. And the weather guy just now said maybe a half inch more tomorrow. I’m ready for spring.

I am more of an opener of cans than anything else.

[luvie]

Easy answer to this one...neither! :)

Except for biscuits 2 times a year. LOL!
