Luke 2:36-38
I am reminded of how much we NEED to be with God! Anna spent days AND nights praising God in the temple! How much do we spend praising God?! Ugh! What depths we have fallen to when we think it takes just a moment here and there and even a sabbath. Every second is on loan! Wake up to your mortality, your insignificance, your inferiority, your temporary nature! We NEED a God who saves, a savior who redeems, a redeemer who lives, a living friend who walks beside us, a companion who loves!
We have this in Jesus, friends! There is no better news! Stop pulling covers over your ears! Our infatuations will decay, our sexuality will fail, our addictions will kill, our desires will melt away. We cannot escape our nature as finite people.
Become greater than you are now. Let Christ build you up into the image of God. Spend time with Jesus. I love him more than anything, and despite my failings, he loves me beyond the grave!
