Humility or Highness

What will you do? We've all had events where we have had company. The question is who was your company and why? For me and my family, most of the time it has been our family who has come to the events. My family has been somewhat different, although we still have a lot of room for improvement. We have welcomed anyone that has accompanied another family member. Not because we expected anything in return but because we loved and wanted to honor our guest as family. So, who will you invite to your event? In Luke 14:12-14, our father guides us by saying don't invite those that you expect something in return from. Invite those that have nowhere else to go or nobody else to turn to. Too often, we do things with the expectation of something in return. I will be the one that gives what I have to those that don't have as much just to make sure they are taken care of. We should do things for the joy of our father, out of the goodness of our hearts, never expecting anything in return. When you are able to achieve this, you will be exalted; not by the world, but by our father who loves you because you are his son/daughter and are acting like it. So humble yourself, your highness...we are all heirs of a king but our glory comes not from man but from our father, Most High.
