May 20 Devotional

Posted on May 20, 2015 by drscott
Dear Beloved,
Thank you all so much for your faithfulness these last few Sundays.  I hope you’ll join me this Sunday as we honor those who have given their lives so that we can enjoy our freedom today.  Memorial Day is a very special day in the life of our church and country.  What can you and I do to say “thank you” for their great sacrifice?  We can sing and we can play to honor that which was freely given for us.  I do hope you’ll join me.  Blessings Friends!  Hugs, Scott

When Your Sins Weigh Heavily upon you, come to Me.  Confess your wrongdoing, which I know all about before you say a word.  Stay in the Light of My Presence, receiving forgiveness, cleansing, and healing.  Remember that I have clothed you in My righteousness, so nothing can separate you from Me.  Whenever you stumble or fall, I am there to help you up.

Man’s tendency is to hide from his sin,  seeking refuge in the darkness.  There he indulges in self-pity, denial, self-righteousness, blaming, and hatred.  But I am the Light of the world, and My illumination decimates the darkness.  Come close to Me and let My Light envelop you, driving out darkness and permeating you with Peace.

1 John 1:7 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

Isaiah 61:10  10 I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

John 8:12 12When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
