some Sunday lessons
What a BEAUTIFUL day! God's creation is spectacular!
Let's see. I listened to Paul Washer this afternoon. He's provided such a good balance for us lately. . . difficult to explain. . . but it's been good to be reminded of the seriousness of God. . . sometimes I think we're so busy enjoying our "freedoms" that the "freedoms" actually become idols.
Anyway, Washer admonished his listeners to study the attributes of God. Tis true. . . but one thing I found when my focus was only upon the attributes was that I would wander about in despair. No human can withstand such thoughts. Then, the Lord began to bestow great kindnesses to me and reminded me that Christ is the express image of God the "exact imprint of His nature" (Heb. 1). Wow- I can handle the attributes of God in Christ- there is no despair in that fear. . . no, there is respect and love for the sacrifice that justifies my sins before such perfection. Therein lies worship- knowing God BUT knowing God through Christ. How lovely.
Well, thank the Lord for rest on the Lord's Day. . . that's what I'm going to go do :).

I think I'll start tonight-
Matthew 24:30b-31; 25:44
"they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And He will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call , and they will gather his elect from the four winds. . . Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect."
Come thou fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing thy grace
Streams of mercy never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Oh to grace how great a debtor
daily I'm constrained to be
Let thy grace Lord like a fetter
bind my wandering heart to thee.
