Upside down values

Matthew 11:11 - No one born from a woman is greater than John the Baptist. Yet the littlest in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

So the least of these is greater in God's eyes than those who have power now. Those who seek glory, power, and money will lose their sense of self - and we are seeing this with the Republican Party in a big way. They will lose their way. The previous verse talks about making God's way straight - rather than the crooked ways of greed and power.

So, I must ask myself daily - what are my values today? Am I truly valuing the things that God values or am I trying for success in America's terms?
