GOD’s Promises. Our beloved brother, Peter writes this final message shortly before he and his wife were martyred. There is a poignancy as we read the chapter, because we know that soon one of the men who walked, talked, ate, and camped with Jesus when He was on this earth, will die.
Glory to the Lamb! The book of Revelation is not a favorite of mine. But this verse, yes, this verse is very clear.
Provocation and anger. Yowzers! The writer of Ecclesiastes had incredible insights into humanity in chapter 7, especially today’s verse.
Siblings. Sibling rivalry. Dysfunctional families. A situation as old as Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:1-12). Hopefully, our family isn’t quite as bad as the first brothers. But there is something to be said about shared history — good and bad — between siblings.
Shaken Peace? Is our covenant of peace shaken, today? Are the mountains and hills around us shaking so badly, we wonder if or how we’ll get through this? Our Father’s covenants are not broken. We may mess up and not live up to our end, but His covenants are eternal.
Trust and Love. That’s the context of today’s verse. What do I mean by this?
Trust. It was after midnight. My future mother-in-love and I were driving back from visiting my future hubby, who was in Navy boot camp outside Chicago. The day had been emotional and long making the drive back to St. Louis arduous.
From time to time, I need reminding. Where I put my glasses. Adding butter to the shopping list. But a truly important reminder is about perspective. GOD’s perspective.
There’s that word: Chazak! Be strong! Our context? Joshua’s beloved mentor has gone off somewhere to die, where GOD Himself would buried him. Now, it is time to enter the long awaited Promised Land.
