It is the Thoughtful Tuesday today.
There are many people who have been close
to God and have given us good thoughts to meditate on.
God's Word gives us many verses we need to
pray about.
Today is dedicated to those thoughts,
ideas, verses and words that make us think and make us want to be closer to
God.
Here
are today's thoughts!
Because we lack a divine
Center our need for security has led us into an insane attachment to
things. We really must understand that the lust for affluence in
contemporary society is psychotic. It is psychotic because it has
completely lost touch with reality. We crave things we neither need nor
enjoy…We are made to feel ashamed to wear clothes or drive cars until they are
worn out. The mass media have convinced us that to be out of step with
fashion is to be out of step with reality. It is time we awaken to the
fact that conformity to a sick society is to be sick.
Richard Foster
But thanks be to God, who
in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the
fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.
2 Corinthians 2:14
The English Standard Version
The English Standard Version
Kuinka paljoa enemmän on Kristuksen veri, hänen, joka
iankaikkisen Hengen kautta uhrasi itsensä viattomana Jumalalle, puhdistava
meidän omantuntomme kuolleista teoista palvelemaan elävää Jumalaa! Ja sentähden
hän on uuden liiton välimies, että, koska hänen kuolemansa on tapahtunut
lunastukseksi ensimmäisen liiton aikuisista rikkomuksista, ne, jotka ovat
kutsutut, saisivat luvatun iankaikkisen perinnön.
Hepr. 9:14-15 KR33/38

What a lovely thoughtful post, it's always great to run across a few verses that make you think what you are doing and try to do whatever it is even better.
