FISH - Scripture reflections
From my scripture gleanings today:
Ruth 1 - Ruth is one of my favorite books in scripture. What’s not to love? It’s a love story that begins with one woman’s tragedy and emptiness. Her hurt blinds her to the greatest asset she has - God’s provision of a daughter-in-law who provides the definition of faithfulness.
Psalm92 - I felt a prompting to read this out loud. Try this - you will hear things not normally heard - Like verse two - God’s love in the morning and faithfulness in the evening. His love in the gift of a new day and his faithfulness in coming through another day - regardless of its trials and snares.
Mark 8:31-ff - Jesus will not tolerate a false definition of himself, even from a friend. Just to make this clear, he tells them plainly -”You want to follow me? Then get a cross.”
1 Corinthians 15:1-28 - Never forget that all authority and power belong to Jesus - even over death! So are you following him?
