My Number 1 is The Bible. Everything I need to give me an abundant life with purpose and true fulfillment is contained in God’s Word.

My Number 2 is The Hidden Life Awakened by Dr. Cathy Snapp and Kitty Crenshaw. Shows how changing our thought patterns yields a healthy body, serene mind and powerful spirit.

My Number 3 is The Wonderful Spirit-filled Life by Dr. Charles Stanley. Shows the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit available to believers to live a victorious, fruitful life!

My Number 4 is Gift from the Sea by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. Helps show how to take time to be still as we journey in life and reflect on the beauty in God’s creation of the beach, shells, the sea.

I wasn't a big classics reader.  Actually not a big reader at all growing up.  However, when I did develop a love for reading it was usually about "self help".  Whether it be for work or parenting, I needed help!  

This first book, "Draw the Circle" was recommended to me by a friend and it came along at a crucial time in my life.  God delivered!

The second book I'll list is one that was a recommended read for all freshmen when my oldest son started college at UCF.  "The Other Wes Moore".  My son never read it but I loved it!

The Good Samaritan

Luke 10:25-29

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?”

Luke 10:30-37

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[a] 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.”

Music: Reckless Love (The Never Ending Love Of God)

Closing Prayer

Heavenly Father, what a privilege and blessing it is to come together each week and imagine how Jesus shared about the kingdom of God in his short time of ministry.

Thank you for teaching us how to live a Godly life by using these simple parables to convey spiritual lessons. Open our eyes to see and our ears to hear everything you want us to apply to our circumstances as we read and meditate on your word. 

May we examine our hearts and be open and teachable to what you are saying. May the Spirit of Truth illuminate our minds to receive your principles which are typically opposite from the world’s. 

We are so grateful for the Holy Spirit who guides us when we approach prayer with humility and a pure heart. 

Help us in the days ahead to reach out to those physically and emotionally wounded to extend compassion, mercy, and love, as we obey the promptings of the Holy Spirit to “Love our neighbors as ourselves.”

In the power of the Holy Spirit, and in the precious name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
