Meme:The birthday season

This post is about a meme where you take your birthdate (month/day) and find the four gospel verses (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) that correspond to them. Here are mine:

Matthew 7:24
The Wise and Foolish Builders
24"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

Mark 7:24
The Faith of a Syrophoenician Woman
24Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret.

Luke 7:24
24After John's messengers left, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: "What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed swayed by the wind?

John 7:24
24Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment."

So I guess my wonderings from this include: 1) becoming a better practicioner of God's word; 2) knowing God's presence can't be kept a secret; 3) believing the "wind" of God will be seen in my desert; and 4) seeing deeper than the surface appearance to make right judgements.

Wow. What does this meme say to you?
