Seek Mercy from the God of Heaven.
Their lives were in danger---a rather stark, dark problem!
We all find ourselves in dark places.
Are we pushing hard, in , up, to Him
What default do we go to? People and Plans...
Seek Mercy from the God of Heaven. Daniel 2:18
Seek Mercy, servants!
God seeks space to enter.
Will He find space in our hearts?
What have we filled in the space in our hearts.
True abandonment pleads Mercy!
Lives in danger brings us to this place.
An imperceptible inner Strength, His Mercy!
Come LORD Jesus. Have Mercy on us!
Titus 1:1 - We are servants to further the faith of God's people and their knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness. How do we then live?
Soberly - mastering those passions
Righteously - loving our duty toward our neighbor
Godly - living in the presence of the Eternal
And that is the wrap on the Christian life.
In this present world. Or,
as the MacLaren commentary says:
"in the present course of things."
We are only passing through. Transitory.
This "passing scene" leads us to believe
there is a "different course of things" at hand.
MacLaren's Commentary calls it this way:
These Titus words are the "fair picture" of what our lives should be;
the impossible task of man to live this way;
and the Grace to make this real life possible.
PHOTO: God, have mercy on this child. May God find space in your heart for Him. Ezri, may you live with imperceptible inner Strength from God! You are off to the best start you could have ever had, thanks to your Mom and all those who have surrounded you these first 7 years.
