Daily Scripture and Thoughts

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28 ESV)

Dear Ones-
The Lord continues to bless us, and show us His love through His Grace and Mercy in our lives. Forsaking what we deserve and continuing to bless us and use things in our lives for good, even when at the moment there seems to be no good in what is happening.

Would the sacrifice of the Cross be enough for you to love the Lord if He did nothing else in your life? We continually need and ask of the Lord- we ask more besides the greatest love sacrifice HE bestowed on us. There is nothing greater anyone can do, yet we want more. We ask for more.. we say things like ' if you love me Lord, you will......"

What more do you need?

Lord forgive us for minimizing the Cross for asking more than your greatest Sacrifice of your Son Jesus Christ. Lord we are a desperate people, who need to know your Word and to live it in our lives. You ask- if you love me you will keep MY Commands. Lord we ask and ask but we are not willing to do. We are not willing to live by your Word, we are not willing to die to ourselves. We continue in sin, making excuses convincing ourselves of lies. Asking more of you- Lord we deserve your wrath but yet you continue to love us... WHY?

Lord open our eyes so we may see! Help us to not just read this Word but manifest it from our lives so we may be a light and bring glory to your name.

In Jesus Name
Amen
