Being back in the classroom has reminded me how everything is a delicate balancing act. I believe I have no choice, but to intervene tomorrow. I usually love girls, but the drama and the mind games for cruelty really do blow my mind...
Matthew 2: 13-23
The Escape to Egypt & Return to Nazareth
It was through Joseph's faith towards God that Jesus was able to survive and fulfil his purpose on earth. I am reminded that God has a plan for all of us; however, God gave us "choice". This path of choice, often leads us astray. We are tempted to fall off God's path and as such our destiny changes. However, God's grace leads us back to him. For it is only through Him that true comfort can be found.
Romans 1: 18-32
God's Anger at Sin
Wow! This was a painful passage to read. God describes how callous we are. What a disappointment we are. He states that same-sex relationships are wrong. Idol worship is like slapping God's face. How can we bow down and worship statues or symbols that clearly did not create this world? We are so desperate to deny God's existence that we absorb and act out in feats of evil. We exhibit greed, hate, envy, murder, fighting, deception, malicious behaviour and gossip. Not onlu do we choose to practice these things, we encourage others to follow in our footsteps... wow... do we not sound like horrible creatures... a creation, not worth saving...
So it is with great gratitude that I see God as a VERY forgiving and loving father.
