Remember!

Deuteronomy 32: 7 (ESV)

⁷ Remember the days of old; consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will show you, your elders, and they will tell you.

How often do you consider the things of God?

I named this devotional, “Light Reflections”, and yet I realize that some of these reflections are not so light, after all.

Maybe it’s just me, but when I consider or reflect on the nature of God, for me, it’s just too much to take in.

I can’t explain it, but I’m not sure why the God as we know Him, would send His one and only Son into the world, to die in my place.

That is not a cynical statement, but as I consider what my lot in life could have been, I’m a little overwhelmed.

I wonder how many people, are still overwhelmed when they consider the cross?

This is not an emotional moment for me per say, but then again, maybe it is.

Has the message of the Gospel for some, gotten stale?

I hope that is not the case, but then I’m not convinced that the church of Christ is all that thrilled any more, about Holy week.

As I remember the days of old, I’m so thankful for a Mom who showed me how important this week is.

One of the things I love the most about being a Grandpa, is for the opportunity to have my Grandbabies ask me about Jesus, one day.

I don’t even have to think about what my answer  is going to be.

The way I really feel, is still right on the very edge of my heart…and I’m going to be sure to tell them, the first chance I get…

Ask yourself:

·         When I reflect on the things of God, am I still trying to find out who God is, or am I still trying to find out who I am?
