MORNING VERSES: Isaiah 59:1 KJV Behold, the LORDS hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: ROLAND KLINE 1 Peter 3:15 KJV But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: EVENING VERSES: 1 Peter 3:15 KJV But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: INSIGHT: We are to be ready and able to tell folks about the hope that Jesus has brought to our lives! But when we share this hope, two things are important: our credibility — is Jesus really Lord of our hearts — and our character — do we show gentleness and respect in our persuasion approach. The goal is not to win arguments but hearts to the God of character! PRAYER: Holy and Loving Father, thank you for speaking your grace in Jesus. Im not sure I would have heard any other message. Give me the conviction I need to share my hope in Jesus, but in a way that reflects your grace. Through my Living Hope I pray. Amen. ROLAND KLINE Psalm 103:12 KJV As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Insight East and west can never meet. This is a symbolic portrait of Gods forgiveness—when he forgives our sin, he separates it from us and doesnt even remember it. We need never wallow in the past, for God forgives and forgets. We tend to dredge up the ugly past, but God has wiped our record clean. Challenge If we are to follow God, we must model his forgiveness. When we forgive another, we must also forget the sin. Otherwise, we have not truly forgiven.
