What I Want, Right Now edition

   Sometimes I think about things I want, but can't come up with anything. I guess that means I have everything I really need. Sure, I'd love to have a million dollars or a boat made of glass, or an El Camino that plays Metallica all day. Or a lawn chair in the surf, while I'm half drunk on pina coladas, about to head up to the condo for a sandwich I'm gonna make with some carving board turkey and some mayo on toast. The new iphone just came out. The iphone 5. I don't really care though. So I guess there's that.

   Todays gospel comes from Luke:

Gospel, Luke 8:19-21¹⁹ His mother and his brothers came looking for him, but they could not get to him because of the crowd.²⁰ He was told, 'Your mother and brothers are standing outside and want to see you.'²¹ But he said in answer, 'My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and put it into practice.'

   I only have one brother. I guess it'd be alright if both he and my mom wanted to see me. It's good to be wanted. Even better if everyone who hears the word of God would want to see you, right?
