Motivated by Love

Luke 13:30
“For behold, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.”

Jesus says that the people this world might look down upon…those viewed as being “last”…might actually be looked upon as “first” in the viewpoint of God’s Kingdom. And the reverse is also true. What really matters is our motivation…not outward appearances. What is in our hearts? If we are motivated by love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion…then the Kingdom of God is at hand! In the kingdom of God…all are equal. Ranking is of no importance.
