Means Nothing

Success means nothing if you can't share it. Have you ever felt this way? I can make all the money in the world, have notoriety, fans, you name it but what's the point.

The longer I live the more I see that I need people in my life. Friends, family, and of course those who may become family. It's great not just to tell them how you are doing but hearing back. We all need it. Nobody can stand alone!



Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD. (NIV, Leviticus 19:18)




You have heard that the law of Moses says, "Love your neighbor and hate your enemy." But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For he gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and on the unjust, too. If you love only those who love you, what good is that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that. But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect. (NLT, Matthew 5:43-48)
