Luke 5:  31 Jesus answered them, ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but those who are ill.'

The Pharisees are not happy with Jesus. He has forgiven the lame man and healed him. He then found Levi, who was a tax collector and made him a disciple.  Now he has gone to a party Levi threw for his friends, and the Pharisees want to know what he is doing hanging out with low life people like that. 

This reminded me of the sermon at Mother's church on Sunday. He wanted us to go "into all the world" to bring people to faith. We can't do that if we are only hanging out with those who have already been saved. 

Prayer:  I will try to represent You well to everyone I meet. I promise to keep my faith on display to those who are looking for the Light, not hiding it away. Guide me to be a good steward of the gift of faith You have given me. 
Amen
