Loving my enemy!

Last time, we looked at the parable of the Prodigal Son (or the Loving Father), as one of the best-known of the stories that Jesus of Nazareth told.

Another of those parables that is well-known even by those who make no claim to be followers of Jesus, is the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 1. Indeed, this parable has, at least in its name, become part and parcel of everyday language. How often have you heard someone say (or maybe even said yourself) that, in a particular situation, “[Name] was a good Samaritan.” What is usually meant is that the person helped out in what may even have been a rather insignificant way.

A modern prodigal!
When my wife and I are asked about any specific situation, my wife will usually reply before I do. "If you want the facts," she will say, "ask me. If you want a story, ask Brian!"

I cannot complain! She is absolutely correct. I am a storyteller. However, one of the greatest - if not the greatest! - storytellers was Jesus of Nazareth. For many of the lessons He taught, He used stories. For the next few posts, I would like to share some of them, and try to discover their relevance for we who live in the 21st century.

Please note that, due to the continuing pressure , now because of our selling of our home in France, in order to return, permanently, to Scotland, I have decided to send out this English language post on the first and third Sundays of the month, and the French language post on the second and fourth Sundays of the month. Whenever there is a fifth Sunday (as this month!) I shall take a break!

The tongue.

One of the little shop-bought desserts that my wife and I enjoy, currently comes with an amusing, or interesting, piece of information printed on the underside of the foil lid. For example, a recent lid provided the information that (translated from the French!): "The hummingbird cannot walk, but it is the only bird that can fly backwards. However, it has never been seen to back away from a Danette."!! Another one that caught my attention during the past week informed me that: "Antarctica is the only continent that does not have spiders. Sadly, it also doesn't have Danette". A final example (I hope that aficionadas of "Trivial Pursuits" are taking careful notes!) assured me that: "A tongue measures on average 9cm. That's long enough to reach the bottom of your Danette jar." You will already have worked out the tradename of the product involved!

After five months of silence, here I am with a new blog post for a new year.

It was while I was back in Scotland, at the end of November - collecting my dear wife! - that we visited the Riverside Museum in Glasgow. This is what used to be named the Transport Museum, but in a new venue! What an amazing experience! Things that we both remembered from even before our marriage were there in front of us, testifying to the changes that have been made in even that (mere!) half-century (+).

I'll never find another you.

Those of a certain vintage will, undoubtedly, be transported in their minds to the early sixties, and to the Australian singing group, The Seekers, by those words in the heading. The original song was, of course, of a romantic nature - but it was also stating a scientific fact! You are unique! I am unique! Every person in the history of planet earth is unique! No-one will ever find another you, or me!

Deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, is found in every cell in the body, and is passed on from parent to child. It is self-replicating material that is in every living organism. In simplest terms, it is a carrier of all genetic information. It contains the instructions needed for organisms to develop, grow, survive, and reproduce. I read, recently, that DNA molecules can unite in an almost infinite number of ways. The number I read was 10 to the power of 2,400,000,000. That is a BIG number!

About

I am an ordained minister of the Gospel, happily married and with two daughters, one of whom is herself married, and who has provided me with a grandson. I hold a number of academic qualifications, from a variety of establishments and in a variety of disciplines.
I have led a varied life and now, with my wife, reside in France where I minister to both English-speaking and French-speaking groups. I host a totally non-commercial blog (www.crazyrev.blogspot.com) which is, predominantly, a 'ministry blog', and endeavour to post with a certain regularity!
I have authored three books on "... the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." (Jude, v.3) which may be accessed from the blog. ALL royalties are sent, directly, to Release International, in support of the persecuted church.
