I was reading Matthew 11-12 in devotions this morning.  It it he condemns people and places who have seen the many miracles of Jesus and yet still do not believe.  He even mentions that wicked cities like Sodom and Gomorrah will be better off in the judgment then the places Jesus did many of his miracles.  It reminded me of the place in Luke 12:43 which says, “But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”  Last week, I asked us to pray for the peace not only of Jerusalem but America as well.  But I could not help but think that we have been given much here in America.  Many blessings are ours simply by being born here.  We have been give MUCH!!!  So how much is required of us???
