Today's Reading
1 Chronicles: "...King David skipping about and laughing with joy..." The person after God's heart is willing to look undignified in worship. It doesn't matter if it's a king or a pauper.
Romans today is a graphic word picture of sliding down a slippery slope. It mentions three levels of sin, each more depraved than the one before. In each case, "God abandoned them" at that level and the sin got worse. It's a dangerous thing to shut out the conviction of God's Spirit and fail to repent while we can.
Psalms: the humble who seek God may have great difficulty now, but God's salvation is ahead. The wicked may think they are getting away with sin, but judgment is coming.
Proverbs: the world tends to disregard the poor. There are those who call attention to the poor, yet their ultimate goal is for their own gain. God's people, however, naturally have compassion on the poor -- it's from God's heart.
And your thoughts today?

How can anyone read Roman's and NOT think that homosexuallity is wrong. It's pretty straight forward here.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Chewie. However, we ALL tend to skim past the passages that speak to our particular weaknesses and not take them seriously.
ReplyDeleteI love the vision of David, the Warrior King, overcome with joy, dancing around in his underwear, all for the Lord.
