God always know.
When God takes us in as His children, he saves, and gives hope. Eph. 2:12-22
As a stranger: no hope. 

Example: arriving at a foreign country and looking for a familiar face
We are not called to keep this love to ourselves, but also to share it with others. 

Hospitality - to love a stranger, to love someone you don't know
    - kindness in welcoming guests or strangers

Leviticus 19:9-10 
    - 19:14 stating His ways and expectations and standards 

Am I leaving room for people who might come across my path?
    - even to recognize
    - be financially prepared to take care of stranger

Matthew 25:31 

1 Peter 4:9


May 15, 2016

Luke 4:14-21 (Jesus read scroll from Isaiah)
    We often have the wrong perception about ourselves, the world, and others, sometimes even God
    - We can be blind and not realize it
    - So many are blind, but do not know
            - speaking to Israelite 
            - Isaiah 61 promise
            - a scroll from 600 years ago
    - People didn't receive message well
    - This is only good news to those who know they are blind
    - Not good news to people who didn't see themselves as weak or poor (especially religious leaders)
    - People today respond the same way
All of humanity is spiritually bankrupt; blind, poor, weak
5:3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit"
    - Beatitudes, Matthew 5
God's spiritual oxygen allows us to see the colors of the Bible

Has my heart become blind?
