But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
(Luke 8:21 ESV)
I always thought of this passage as a very harsh one. I thought this was a poor way to treat his family. However, I am seeing the other side of it. Jesus was telling us how much he cares about us and how much we matter to him.
I am not sure this is a direct application from the scripture, but it applies today. I need to show care to my children. They need to know how much they matter to me and not just how much they frustrate me.
