Day 2: A Sacrifice
I got a shocked when I was reading Lamentations 5:1-22. Horrified actually.
Luckily the Lord did not give up on us. Because then we will not be able to escape the sins that have caused havoc on this Earth.
May I know even more deeply on how much this promise from God means to me and all of us. The saving hands that give us this chance to be pulled away from all these horrors. For here I can see that the more sins are, the deeper the grace can be seen extended.
Jeremiah 31:34
This strikes me because God promised to be personal with His people. Everyone will know Him. He is not some obscure Person on top anymore. So here you can see His love for all of us. To make the trouble to do this. Even though we do not deserve this personal relationship. For a King to stoop low to us.
John 6:53-58
He is offering Himself up as a living sacrifice. For all our sins. I can see of how much He wants to connect to us.
May I understand even more of this Truth.
Today I felt a bit trapped at home. Probably its the effect of cutting myself off from social media. I hope that with this void that I'm feeling, I can direct it to fill in with God's Words. It needs to be emptied first before He can come in. Right? Making me rely on Him even more. I also checked the virus update on a website and it's making me depressed. And i recognise it as something I had felt when I was scrolling through Facebook. Though when I was Facebooking, it was a constant looming of darkness - in a lower dosage but constant - over my whole self. It's bad. So when I check it at one shot, I felt like I got smacked by the feeling. Is this some spiritual thing? Anyway, I feel now is the time to focus on the good in the world. Instead of all the bad. We need to conquer this!
