but I think the world is as it should be lately. I have been truly enjoying the warmer weather. Warm enough to play outside!! Cool enough to enjoy a nice breeze inside the house through open windows! Thank you Lord for such a nice and unseasonal gift of weather!
As I have been studying the covenant that God made with us through Jesus, I have had several light bulb moments. As I continue to spend time in Titus alongside the study of the covenant, these moments seem to burn brighter. Isn't it amazing how consistent God's Word is? Isn't it sad how surprised I can be by that fact? I hope you have read this week's homework and really spent time meditating on the truth of why we have a standard of behavior. We belong to a Holy God who asks of us our lives in return for His protection, watch care, and covenant to bring us further and further into relationship with Him. I've tried things my way. I try some things my way daily. It is never as fulfilling, never as effective, never as glorious as when God stretches His hand down and works in and through me. Why do we have trouble with such a gentle invitation to submit?
Just some thoughts I thought I'd share...
