Doing the Right Thing

My Bill

If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account.

Reading:

But what if I don’t want to do the right thing or the wrong thing?

Why would I not want to do the right thing?

May I allow feelings to have a role in this?

What process do I use to determine what is the right thing to be done?

When is it the right thing for me to pressure someone else to do the right thing?

from Philemon 17

But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

Reading:

Do I value anything above perfection and above entering into eternal life?

Have I deluded myself into thinking I love my neighbor as myself?

Do I think Jesus required too much of the young man?

Am I glad Jesus doesn’t say the same thing to me?

Or does He?

Since it impedes entering into the kingdom of heaven, why get more stuff?

Do I doubt my reward for having forsaken all to follow Jesus?

What’s the solution to unbelief in all this?

“Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?” (Matthew 19:27).

from Matthew 19:27
