“The hardest thing in life is to know which bridge to cross and which to burn” — David Russel, Scottish classical Guitarist-

Decision to make?

The peace that Christ gives is to guide you in the decisions you make; for it is to this peace that God has called you together in the one body. And be thankful. – Colossians 3:15 (Good News Translation)

God is the only one who knows the future, ask him to give peace for the right choice (and/or discomfort for the wrong).

“Judah is my lawgiver; Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe” – Psalm 60:7b-8a

Throwing a shoe in middle Eastern culture was a sign of intense disrespect, and it is really bad when God says he will (figuratively) throw his shoe over a whole people group!

Fact is, God judges by people groups, even now.

Notice the term,”nations” in this verse and who said it:

“When the Son of man shall come in his glory … before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them [the nations] one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats” – Jesus (Matt. 25:31-32)

There is one exception!

“[P]ut on the new man … where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.” – Colossians 3:9b-11

Those who put on Christ are his people group regardless of where they come from.

“[T]hou … hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation” – Revelation 5:9b

Jesus’ redemption crosses all boundaries, people groups, and genders.

Thank God for Christ!

God is At Work

“The trees …the birds … the wild goats … the conies …. all the beasts of the forest do creep forth ….The young lions roar … and seek their meat from God …

Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.

O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all” – Psalm 104:16-24

Its not difficult to see the miraculous hand of God in nature – it is marvelous! But the Bible says our daily work routine is just as inspired by God.

God is at work at work!

Faithfully doing an honest day’s work at an honest job is spiritual, don’t let the routineness make you loose site of that!

“Do your best. Work from the heart for your real Master, for God, confident that you’ll get paid in full when you come into your inheritance – Colossians 3:24 (Message)
