Reading chapter 14 (and the next chapters because I glanced ahead) for me was like reading a will, not particularly riveting, but important. Mentally, I began to make some connections with a will.
- A will describes your inheritance, which suggests that you part of the ‘family,’ if not by blood, certainly by love.
- A will communicates the intentions of the will-writer. How much he/she cared is communicated in the will.
- A will suggests forethought, a plan.
- A will in many cases is the final word. Hopefully, it communicates love, acceptance and possibly even a final blessing.
Even if every family will does not include all these things, God’s will did and does. As I read the allotments, the inheritances, I hear Father God shouting to
Next the Lord reminded me that all of this is mine, because as a follower of Jesus, His Son, I was engrafted into
This is where God took me today
[God also suggested that I put a love letter to each family member in my will… my last word of love, care, acceptance and blessing to each of my family… hmmm, a pretty good idea!]
Lord, funny I didn’t expect this kind of a feeling from reading this chapter. It was kind of dry for me but I leave the Word this morning with an overwhelming feeling and impression of being loved by You. Thank you for this touch of grace. Thank You…
I love you Father, Son, Spirit…
