I see, as you mentioned, our lectionary readings are different this week. I did notice that our scripture from John 1:35-42 and yours right after with verses 43-51 both include the phrase "Come and see".<br /><br />I really appreciate your points about making assumptions. While it is necessary to be prudent and use good judgment, we need to be careful not to simply accept conclusions based on common opinion or generalizations. Or gossip! Instead we must "come and see" for ourselves.Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09019366435305475956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3588695519392993042.post-67704244197008473492012-01-16T16:32:46.542-08:002012-01-16T16:32:46.542-08:00Commanded to love.

My heart strives for obedience and when I freely love, Jesus is beside me pouring out His love, too.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14577919062812348914noreply@blogger.com
