Hi guys, the Devo Blog continues on! if you would like to post, please let me know. =)

Oh today's passage is really good! It has 3 parables of items that were lost, including the prodigal son! But today I want to focus on the first 2 verses that set the context of the parables.
1Now the tax collectors and "sinners" were all gathering around to hear him. 2But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, "This man welcomes sinners and eats with them."
What were the Pharisees saying about Jesus?
Do you think that bothered Him to be known as One who welcomed sinners?
Could you be described the same as Jesus (one who welcomes sinners)? Why or why not? Do you want to be?
Pray that you would have a heart that welcomes sinners, that loves them regardless of what sin they are involved in. Pray God would use you to reach those who so desperately need Him.
