God Gave Us Everything:

God gave us everything we need to be free, whole, healthy and content. Everything we need to bring the kingdom about. Everything necessary to succeed, to grow into the people God hopes we will be. We are the choice vines planted in God’s vineyard!

Faith – Sincerity:

In today’s Gospel, Jesus urges us to live our faith with greater sincerity and to try to deepen it regardless of the challenges we face. Jesus asserts that a lukewarm and token practice of our faith is not acceptable. We must strive daily to know, love and serve the Lord sincerely.

If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe but yourself.
