Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Called 'least' versus hearing a "Well done, thou good and faithful servant" should be a no brainer but… How the Evil One slides a sly suggestion in that a little pleasure today really won't hurt. And while I'm at it, lets pull a few friends in with me.
Today's readings in the Psalms:
Morning: Psalm 96
Mid-day: 119:89-96
Evening: Psalm 22
