Hi
So day 2 was good as was day 3... except that I feel tired! Oh well... not much to do about that except maybe get to sleep :)
Day 2 we looked at hard words. And how Jesus calls us to a very hard teaching. This wasn't too hard for me to think about... it makes a lot of sense. To quote some famous person... being a Christian is one of the hardest easy things to do... or was it the other way around. Either way, it makes sense doesn't it? That we have simply to believe in Christ to be saved... but then our love for Jesus calls us to do extremely hard things. What do you think? BTW, the verse is "On hearing it, many of His disciples said, 'This is a hard teaching, who can accept it?' From this time many of His disciples turned back and no longer followed Him." ~John 6:60,66
Day 3 we talked about how we have to be ruined. What?!?! ( you must be saying) let me explain. Today's verse is: "'Woe to me!' I cried. 'I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.'" ~Isaiah 6:5
This is the prophet Isaiah (obviously!) talking about how he shouldn't see the Lord Almighty because of the evil in his heart coming out of his lips. We must see how truly sinful we are in order to see how truly HOLY God is!!!! How truly we need His love and forgiveness.
What do you think? Have you ever had a time in your life where you saw God's forgiveness so personally in your life?
Yours in Christ,
