Luke 10:25-42

The Parable of the Good Samaritan
25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”

27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[a]; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b]”

28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”

29 But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

30 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii[c] and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’

36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”

37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”

Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

At the Home of Martha and Mary
38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”

41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one.[d] Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

April 10th Only one love

“And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, Abba, Father!” GALATIANS 4:6
There is only one love in this universe. It is not your love, his love, their love, or my love. It is the love of the Son for the Father, and the love of the Father for the Son, in the current of the Spirit! In the Godhead there is one reality of love flowing, and that one love is poured out into our hearts! We love with that love. So none of us have to look at ourselves — at our own potential and ability to love — because it is all a matter of receiving Jesus Christ, who is the concentration of the love of God. It is having this Person live in you, crying, “Abba, Father.”
There is only one love, and that love is in us. This relieves us from all the strain and struggle with the inner turmoils that we may go through. We say to ourselves, “I just don’t have any love toward the Lord. I don’t love the Lord that much.” The more we say this to ourselves, the worse we feel, and the more we are in the pit of despair. But, oh, that we would begin to recognize the love dwelling in us. There is a love in our heart — the very love of the Son of God.
