Reading for the Weekend


"The people asked him, “What should we do?”

He replied, “If you have two shirts, give one to the poor. If you have food, share with those who are hungry.”

Even public officials came to be forgiven and asked, “Teacher, what should we do?”

He replied, “Collect no more than the law requires, do not engage in graft and corruption.'

And What should we do?” asked some soldiers and peacekeepers.

John replied, “Do not extort money or make false accusations. Be content with your just wages.”

Luke 3:10-14
