"What then shall we do?"

This morning I was reading in Luke and came across this:

John said to the multitudes that came out to be baptized by him... "Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."

And the multitudes asked him, "What then shall we do?"

And he answered them, "He who has two coats, let him share with him who has none; and he who has food, let him do likewise." (Lk 3.7-11)
A good passage to keep in mind today as we make plans to take in guests tomorrow. A few women (including Darcy) have already asked to stay here.
