Passiontide and the Gift(?) of the Quarantine (Fun Word Friday)

 

 

Find the gifts today. Find the gifts in what’s going on. Discover the good in all that’s going around you. Look for what God is turning into good for you. And take a break from dwelling on the craziness to fix your eyes on Jesus. That’s what the Passiontide is about. And that’s what He’s teaching you. You can trust Him. He will save you and bring you through this.

The Realness of the Sacred Scriptures – Gal 6:11 (Bible Study Thursday)

 

 

This verse shows the realness of God breathing words through His apostles — even a frail, old Paul can’t see and has to write in giant letters. The Scriptures are the inspired word of God, written by men, as a gift. When you read the Scriptures, you’re reading God’s own Words, delivered by His servants. They were actual human beings, real people in a real time.

A Christmas Break from the Quarantine (What’s UP? Wednesday)

 

 

In a world where everything is falling apart, we have comfort and hope, because “…no words are impossible with God”. God announced to a virgin a reality that changed the universe, an impossible Word that she was with child, a Child born to save. And into our suffering, fear, dread, and loneliness, He says, “I’m going to save you. I’ve sent my Son to save you.”
