Though it may have seemed like it, not everyone was trying to trick or test Jesus. Some actually just wanted to engage in honest dialogue with them.  That is the case with the Scribe in today’s passage from the Gospel of Mark. As it turns out, Jesus doesn’t mind the questions... as long as we’re asking the right ones.  Like ... “what matters most?” Ultimately, like the Scribe, we’re on a journey. Who knows, we also may also may “not be far from the Kingdom of God.” Until we get there though, don’t forget to love God AND your neighbor.
