Live WIth Wisdom And Understanding

Psalm 90:12-17 KJV; Proverbs 15:14-33; 21st Sunday after Pentecost; Power is back on so I rejoice for that and can blog again. But, let us continue to pray for all who have been affected by Hurricanes Helena and Milton.

The Lord Knows Our Sins

Psalm 139:23-24 KJV; It would be more comfortable if God didn't know our every thought and action. But, he does and so do we. Without that knowledge we would not turn and follow in the way everlasting.

The Comprehension of Love

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. (Eph 3:17-19 KJV)

I woke up this morning with the realization that I did not just believe in God or as some would say a higher power. I woke up with the comprehension that I actually know him. There was no doubt in my mind that he exists. However, I also realized that I do not pay Him the honor or respect or the love that belongs to Him. 

It is one thing to say that I believe in the one true God. However, it is totally something else to worship Him in spirit and truth. We must be reminded often that God loves us so completely that He was willing to give His only begotten Son to die for people who so reluctantly or even refuse to worship Him. Without the comprehension of how much He truly loves us; of what He was willing to do to save us from ourselves, it is quite impossible to love and worship Him in return as we ought.

Today is also the anniversary of D-Day. A day that so many were willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of others. Can there be anything greater than a love like this? 

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

God grant us the ability to comprehend the true value of the love of God in Christ Jesus that we might all learn to love God and one another even as He loves us.
