DEUTERONOMY S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 14
You have been set apart as holy to the Lord your God,
and He has chosen you from all the nations of the earth to be His own special treasure.
~ Deuteronomy 14:2
I have been set apart as holy - dedicated or consecrated - to the Lord...
He has chosen me to be His own special treasure...
Not because I'm deserving...
All because of His grace...
...along with everyone else...
...His special treasure...
Choosing Father God - I confess to sometimes seeing myself as separate from those around me, though I don't often think of myself as special or better than them, I do catch myself leaning that way from time to time - and thank You that Your Holy Spirit eases me back to remembering Your Son Jesus came for them, too... May I surrender my wants and will to see and embrace all I meet, even in passing, as needing to be set apart, as chosen though they may not realize it, as unknowingly Your special treasure... for whom Your Son came and died and through Your power was raised triumphantly over my - our - sin... In His Name, Father, and, in His example, for Your glory and honor...
I hope it's been a good week... don't forget to hit me up with anything going on in your world that needs prayer - praise as well as needs and concerns...
