David Porter tagged me. I have no clue what this is about, but not wanting to be seen as a spoiled sport, I’ll do all that Laurie, who was tagged with me, has done.

“Here’s how it works: I am supposed to pick up the nearest book with at least 123 pages, turn to the 123rd page, find the 5th sentence, and then post the three sentences immediately after that. ”

I am sitting at Philip’s computer and the book closest to here is one he has been reading—‘He Spoke in Parables’ by Gordon J. Keddie.
Here goes:

All the fashionable guests who begged off were replaced with a collection of needy strangers who would never have expected an invitation to that table had they lived to be a hundred!

The key to understanding this parable lies in the fact that Jesus was ministering at this point to the Pharisees. They were the party of legalistic ‘orthodoxy’ within Judaism.

To find five others to tag is easier said than done because the only two regular visitors/contributors to my blog are David and Laurie. Sigh!

I will have to entreat my friend Brent in Japan. He rarely finds time to blog and because I wanted to include his blog in my link of blogs, I had to change the link category from ‘Interesting Blogs’ to ‘Blogs I View’.

I’ll tag my daughter Prisy who plans on starting a blog soon, and her friend Natalie who does not blog.

Julia, would you? (no, it does not have to be a biblical book)

I simply can’t think of a fifth.

And I’ll close like Laurie has:

“If anyone else wants to play, jump right in. If anyone doesn’t, my feelings will be fine,”
