—Luke 14:12-14

Examining our motives is important when making plans that include others. It is easy to plan events and activities that will include those we are closest to and with whom we are the most comfortable. We must just be careful that our motives are pure and that we are not looking to impress someone or to manipulate them into making us a part of something in their lives out of obligation. It is important for us to continue to look beyond our circle and outside of our comfort zone to find the ones that God intends for us to touch.
