Day 20

Derrick


Today (and over the weekend) we read the story of Jacob and Esau, how Jacob was a blackmailer and took the birth right and the blessing from his brother Esau.

now i understand that God said that the older would serve the younger, wouldn't there be a better way that to be a deceiver to get this done, I see times in my life where I take the will of God and twist it to become something i can accomplish, and then someone gets hurt (emotionally).

I pray that I follow the Lord and let him guide my paths. That I let God be my light and my fortress, my everything my all...


"recycle me, make me new, use my life and change it too". (these are the beginnings of a song that is coming into my head...







Kayla-


In Luke 15, we are told parables of finding something that was lost, and how precious it is. It reminds me of how sometimes I forget that the "lost" people of the world are precious. Of course we celebrate and are happy when they are "found" and accept Jesus as Savior, but what about when they are still lost? Are we still treating them as they are something that is precious, something worth finding. Are we as the hands and feet of Christ, really being and saying and acting as His hands and feet? Are we treating the lost as something that is precious and important? We were there once, too. Those lost are a treasure to God, and should be to us, and we should not only rejoice when they are found, but make sure we are looking to find them as well, and lead them to the cross. We should be reminding them that they aren't alone. They have us. They have God.
