The Right Position


Keep yourselves in the Love of God.” Jude 21

     Did you ever hear something you think you really didn’t hear or what you didn’t understand? Our response is often, “WHAT!” How do we keep ourselves in the love of God? Doesn’t He always love us? Well, He loved us enough to send His Son to die for us. So, He loved us when we were truly unlovable.
     A married couple can understand this passage quite easily. We had a great dating time, a wonderful engagement period, and a beautiful wedding where we promised to love and cherish each other as long as both lived. Then comes marriage where it isn’t always the same. We clash with our ideas, our needs, our wants. Sometimes many couples begin to question if they love each other. Of course, they usually do, but it is hard to see. They haven’t left their love, they have left the joy and commitment of their love. Christians sometimes feel estranged from God because they have lived so contrary to His will that they expect only the worst from Him. We are to keep from letting that happen.
Father, We want to truly guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Amen

  The Friday Benediction
Until Monday, my friends, may the good God envelop you with His grace; may you prove the common confession of faith, “I believe in the holy Christian church and in the fellowship of the saints”, and may you be enriched with joy and hope as you exercise that confession this weekend.  Amen
