     "Becoming saints..."
  by The Rev. Rhondda MacKay


   - October 24, 2010
      The day's text: Jesus also told this parable...
 ‘Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee
  and the other a tax-collector.
  The Pharisee, standing by himself, was praying thus,
      “God, I thank you that I am not like other people: thieves,
       rogues, adulterers, or even like this tax-collector.
       I fast twice a week; I give a tenth of all my income.
 But the tax-collector, standing far off, would not even
 look up to heaven, but was beating his breast and saying,
      “God, be merciful to me, a sinner!
 I tell you, this man went down to his home justified
 rather than the other;
 for all who exalt themselves will be humbled,

 but all who humble themselves will be exalted.’  Luke  18:9-14
