God could not be sweeter in our passage today. Please listen. You will hear the heart of God in His relationship to a people who are not the shiniest.
Here is the prize:
- He gives grace and then MORE grace (especially to the humble)
- He will exalt (though we have no business participating in this)
- He opposes pride (of course He does, it gets in the way of everything spiritual and good)
- He draws near (this killed me today. Why does He bother? This is the bomb drop of the Old and New Testaments. Who are we? What about my laughable 'drawing near to Him?')
Here is the path: Humility, subjection of ourselves, mourn, weep, wretchedness, repentance.
Come with me today. Maybe you will see God. I certainly caught a glimpse. bewithme.us
