C. S. Lewis on LoveSample

[IMAGE CONTENT] # Application thoughts Read the prescribed Bible passage. Jesus had nothing against us loving or caring for our earthly dear ones. Only a few verses before today's reading, there is an account of Jesus healing Peter's mother-in-law. It was more a question of priority - if the situation demanded it, who would you yield to? What Jesus did demand from us is that we place no human being above Him in our lives. What would you do if the desires of your dear ones are contrary to what God is calling you to do? Will you pray that God would renew our hearts and minds, such that we seek Him and His will above all others? Will you also pray that if such a situation should arise, that He will give you the grace to deal with your dear ones with great love, even if you will not yield to them?
