So I can't believe the sem. is already beginning! I just had my first day of classes, and it was enjoyable yet very overwhelming ;)
By popular requests, I have been thinking about formatting things to be more convenient for people. I think that since things are so busy, and there are some times when there's a little extra time to read, and some days that are tough keeping up, it would be good to do a week at a glance. So, I'll go ahead and post stuff for the rest of this week, and then every Sunday I'll update the week at a glance. Thanks to those who've given me feedback, and enjoy the week!

Justice

Wow so I just read this note today on Exodus and it seems so applicable:
"There are probably no more biblically familiar words than "thou shalt not."...Many of these (laws mentioned to the Israeli people) are surprisingly applicable across time and culture. The poor still struggle for justice in our criminal system. The immigrant struggles in our midst more than ever...Such obedience will show the character of Israel's God."

Heart

I pray that our hearts may never be hardened. I read about "heart" in Exodus, and the Wesley Bible defines it as our spiritual center. I believe that God allows us to make decisions on whether or not we will follow Him.  Although God hardens Pharoah's heart, there are many times when Pharoah hardens his own heart.

Living with a hardened heart is such a scary thing. Thinking of this as a spiritual center, a "hardened heart" means a hardened spirit; no matter what happens (or what "signs" Pharoah was shown in his case), you aren't moved by it. Pharoah's own first born died, yet his heart was still hardened.

Our spiritual heart must never be hardened, must remain open, yet at the same time guarded. Although it may seem impossible to do all three, it is possible by giving our hearts to God.  I was reading a book by Sam Wells that "Not wanting to do the wrong thing in the wrong place at the wrong time in the wrong way for wrong reasons holds many--perhaps most--people from doing anything at all." I believe that when our hearts are centered on God, we can truly understand His will. When we make mistakes, hopefully our relationship with God is strengthened. I heard this amazing song on the radio the other day...

So just read something that's phrased very well, and can be used as a great reminder of our walk with Christ:
"You are either becoming more like Christ every day or you're becoming less like Him. There is no neutral position in the Lord."

Day 18 :)


Day 18 ;)
morning: Matthew 12: 24-50
evening: Genesis 43, 44, 45

Tuesday, August 9, 2011

So beginning in Matthew 9:37 it strikes me how He says, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few." This really convicts me when I think about the concept of suffering or inconveniencing myself for others. When do we/how often do we inconvenience ourselves for the sake of others? We live in an individualistic culture that teaches us to put ourselves before others. We must undo this mindset we have learned, and work together.


Another thing that stuck out to me was seeing Christs' true love for us re-emphasized. In Matthew 10:29-31 the imagery and truth re-emphasize how important we are to God. The Son of God is so powerful yet approachable. He is the only one who can truly give us "rest." We are valuable to Him--He created us in "the image of God." This allows us to relate to God and the world He created. We are so blessed and have always been loved and valued. With so much given to us, how can we not be but thankful? I think that we should carry the fact with us that we are valued by One so powerful; we must treat ourselves like we are of value. This means having self-respect and confidence; knowing who you are and whose you are. As children of God, he wants the very best for us.

Wednesday, August 3, 2011

So today while reading Genesis, it was really interesting to think about Rebekah, even though she may not have been the main character in the story. God had told her before her children were even born that Jacob would rule over Esau. Yet, Rebekah lacked patience, and took matters into her own hands. God still delivered what He said would happen, but I think it's important to think about how vital patience is, and how important it is to wait for God's perfect timing. Patience is something we work on until we die; we learn about patience in some areas of our lives, but we realize through life experiences where patience is still lacking.

Day 11 :)

Happy Wednesday!

Genesis 22

Abraham's obedience caught my attention so much. When God told him to go take his son up to the mountain and offer him as a sacrifice, he didn't hesitate. He went without complaints, without asking God WHY... he just went, out of obedience.

How many times do have to barter with God just so we can get our way? Maybe what he wants us to sacrifice is a little too much for us to give up? Too uncomfortable?

It's incredible to see how much faith Abraham has in God, and I hope it encouraged you the same way it encouraged me. Hopefully, we continue to put our faith in God whenever he asks us to do something that we may not understand. Sometimes we are put in seasons of testing but it's important to know that "God will provide" just like God provided for Abraham so that he wouldn't have to kill his son.

Let's continue to trust God with all that we have, because all in all, everything belongs to Him.

-Dorothy


Day 8 :)

Happy Sunday! Found a great quote to share:
"Begin today! No matter how feeble the light, let it shine as best it may. The world may need just that quality of light which you have."       -Henry Blinn
Morning verse: Matthew 6: 19-34
Evening verse: Genesis 20, 21, 22

Saturday, July 30, 2011

Day 7 :)

Happy Saturday everyone!

morning verse: Matthew 6:1-18
evening verse: Genesis 18, 19

Friday, July 29, 2011

Matthew 5:42 particularly struck me. It states, "Give to anyone who begs from you, and do not refuse anyone who wants to borrow from you." At the bottom of the page, my Bible has a life application topic on giving and it states, "The true meaning of giving--charity--is solidarity. We are in solidarity with the poor when we recognize how we are all interrelated. What we have is related to what the poor do not have. We must give of what we have, not of what we have left over...Solidarity--giving--is living simply: opposing consumerism, not turning wants into needs, living with less comfort so the poor can simply live."
Over the past few days, I've realized so many different things that I do wrong that I hope to fix, and I think that concerning giving, I really struggle with "living on less." But, I think that "opposing consumerism," and working on other traits like patience (which is a life-long thing to learn) as well as constant concern for others are things to consider. Also, it was eye opening to remember that swearing, or making promises, is something that we should not really do...I guess I have to work on that one too ;)

Day 6 :)

Happy Friday!
morning verse: Matthew 5: 27-48
evening verse: Genesis 16, 17

Thursday, July 28, 2011

I love the Beatitudes in the Bible because this section clearly mentions the characteristics that we should try to live by every day. I think the characteristics that are stated are so important and definitely contrasts much of what the world portrays as a person of "strength" and good-standing. In the Beatitudes, the "meek" are blessed, as well as those with many other characteristics. One characteristic that really resonated with me is that of being a "peacemaker." I think that a lot of times, we feel the need to fight our own battles and stand up for ourselves. At the same time, I think this scripture is a reminder that it should be our goal to "do no harm." With that being said, we must be careful not to be hypocritical, and to really think about all the words that come from us. We need to think about others in all that we do so that we know we are not purposely negatively affecting other people. I think a great example of a peacemaker is Abram--in Genesis (13:8), when Abram realizes there is conflict between his livestock and Lot's livestock, he allows Lot to choose for himself what land to take, and he does his best to remain a peacemaker when Lot is in trouble.
God loves the mind, but sometimes our mind tries to get in the way of our heart - our heart can take us places our brains can never fit.

I heard this quote today from a video that I was watching, and it may not be directly related to our readings but I just really wanted to share it with you guys:)

As a college student, I realized that as most of us are acquiring a higher education we are being fed a lot of information that may or may not hinder our walk with God. From the evolutionary aspects of Biology, to the problem of evil in Philosophy.

In our classes, we are taught these things, and WHY they are. And as we are on our quest to higher knowledge, some of us may begin to doubt God and his existence… we begin to question how this world came about… we begin to question a lot of things.

This gives a foothold to the enemy and the enemy begins to use your intellect against you. He begins to plant doubts in your mind about God.

From personal experience, I took a philosophy class that just challenged me, not academically but spiritually. I was taught a lot of things that I don’t necessarily agree with. And for me, it helped draw me closer to God as opposed to me beginning to question Him. I knew that if I hold steadfast to His word, that I will be able to learn more about Him and depend on Him, and not on my own intellect.

Also, as a Biology major I always hear about evolution. Obviously I have to deal with learning it… but every time we talk about it in class, I just become so amazed instead at how God created everything. How he planned everything. God granted me the ability to learn the things I need to learn, yet still stand firm in His word and I thank Him for that.

So, I just want to encourage you to not let your intellect get in the way of your heart - Don’t get hardhearted.

Day 5 :)

Happy Thursday everyone!
Today's morning verse is: Matthew 5: 1-26
evening verse: Genesis 13, 14, 15
Have a great day ;)

Wednesday, July 27, 2011

So today when reading Matthew, I really thought it was interesting to see how Jesus himself overcame temptation. I think this story shows that God really understands our day to day trials, and by Him sending His son to live as a "human," God shows His empathy for us. I think it is also interesting that Satan knows so much scripture and tries to use it against Jesus. As a Christian, I think this gives me even more of a reason to truly know God's word and to understand who God is and what He wants for my life.

I am also touched by the obedience that many of the people in the Bible have for God. In Matthew, when Jesus asks the different men to be his disciples, they "immediately left their nets and followed Him." In Genesis, when the Lord asks Abram to leave his country, Abram immediately goes. This not only demonstrates obedience but also complete faith in God.

Day 4 :)

We're halfway through the week and already on Day 4! Happy Wednesday!
For today,
morning verse: Matthew 4
evening verse: Genesis 10, 11, 12

Tuesday, July 26, 2011

In Matthew, the humility of John the Baptist is something I hope to have throughout life. Even when Jesus came to him to be baptized, John's response models what I think we should aim for as Christians--we should always approach people with the greatest humility.

In Genesis, the story of the Great Flood continues to reveal God's mercy and love. Despite destruction, God makes a covenant with Noah--and this covenant is something that shows God's love for man, even though people constantly commit sin.

Day 3 :)

Good morning and happy Tuesday!


Morning verse: Matthew 3
Evening: Genesis 7, 8, 9


Have a great day!

Monday, July 25, 2011

I continued on with Gen chapters 4,5,& 6 and Matt 2

"See Through the Eyes of God" By Todd White

Hey guys! I just wanted to share a video with you all:

http://www.xpmedia.com/h3oKT7vmlUwJ

The message was so powerful and I hope that you all find it powerful as well.

It talks about how reaching out to people should not be about what denomination you are or what prayer you pray - But instead, all about Jesus and His love.

-Dorothy

Day 2 :)

Genesis 1-3

After re-reading the first 3 chapters of Genesis, I was just so amazed at how God planned everything. How he carefully crafted each and every living thing that is on this earth.

Another thing is that God is a god of choice. He gave Adam and Eve instructions not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and instead they can partake in everything else besides the fruit of that tree. He gave them a choice - He wasn't going to force them... obviously they disobeyed and that caused the fall.

With that said, God gives us choices every single day... one of them would be: to obey Him or not. Do we choose to put our faith and trust in Him, or do we decide to take things upon our own strength? I encourage you all to say a prayer every morning (if you don't already do so) asking God to lead you throughout the day and let Him know that you're putting your trust in Him. This will strengthen your relationship with Him in that you'll become more sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit.

I pray that God continues to reveal new things to us, through His word, every day. God bless!
Wow what a challenge, but I think I'm up to it. Forgive me in advance if I fall off the wagon. I do not plan to do that. I don't intend to do that. But like they say, there are lots of folks going to "you know where" who intended to do something for God.
So anyway here I am at the nth hour trying to blog.
Gen Chap 1-3 and Matt 1 I have read before but I gleaned this on this time reading that the Spirit of the Lord hovered over the water that part of the trinity God's Spirit hmmm
God Created heaven and the Earth but His Spirit Hovered over what was then darkness.
I 'll stop at that point which impacted me.
ok I will go on:

God is a God of Order and perfection who sets things in to motion in an organized way making many provision for us and the earth as He goes. From darkness to light to moving waters where they needed to be --He took care of all of that. Filling the seas, the skies setting the time,seasons so you never have to ask "what time is it?" He did that! What a mighty God we serve!

Day 1 :)

A friend once mentioned a great analogy that stuck with me when I heard it. In the solar system, there is the Sun, and the planets are constantly moving around this central thing. In the same way, God is a constant. He doesn't change and nor does His love for us. In reading the New Testament and Old Testament concurrently, I believe that it is important to keep this in mind. I challenge you to see and understand how God's mercy and grace was, has always, and forever more will be present and constant.

Time To Start ;)

Hope everyone is doing well!
I will post readings to the blog as well as my facebook wall. Also, for those who want to get ahead or who wake up early, the morning passage is: Matthew 1 and the evening is: Genesis Chapters 1, 2, and 3 (don't let so many chapters intimidate you...promise it's worth the time, and there won't be three evening chapters every night, but in the beginning, it will kinda be like that).
Enjoy ;)
