Today's Reading
Exodus. Deliverance! What do you think was going on in the hearts of the Hebrews as they left Egypt? Notice that God immediately gives them some rules to live by. He wants them to yield themselves totally to Him. Isn't it the same with us?
Matthew today contrasts Jesus' compassion for the hurting with His anger at the religious people whose hearts were far from God. If Jesus were here right now, would He look on you with compassion or anger? God wants to deliver us from the false spirit of religion.
Psalms for today totally reflects the cry of my heart. How about you?
Proverbs. Dishonest transactions put us in the light of God's judgment.

Ive always known there was a connection between the Passover meal and our communion.

I wonder why I never noticed that before.
