Deuteronomy 11:1 - 12:32
What's there not to love?
Even in all these requirements and strict rules, I can so clearly see the deep love of God between the lines. He yearned for the best for his chosen people. He wanted them to succeed. He wanted them to be free from consequences.
He still wants the same thing for us today! He has reconciled us to Himself and He longs for the day when we commune together face to face. Let us love Him truly and obey Him wholeheartedly--getting rid of all the evil in the camp.
Luke 12:35-59
This passage has really taken on a new meaning to me over the last couple of years. Verses 49-53 have truly played out in our lives. I wondered why I was having such a hard time in some relationships, and this verse explains it all. Our light shining bright can bring division to those who are avoiding the light altogether. They are going to shy away from it (us). It's not us--it's the Holy Spirit in us. Take heart!
Psalm 43:1-5
Again, David is reassuring himself that God alone is his deliverer. David can do nothing aside from the power of God at work in and around him. "Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God."
