He wa born, He lived, He took, on Hos shoulders, our weight of sin. For His glory, for our sakes, he took it all.

Hope for the fallen
We all fall at one point or the other … at least I know that I do. In Leviticus, we are given a list of does and don’ts that go beyond the 10 commandments. Reading Leviticus, I find myself being checked for sin and being found guilty, but also as it speaks of sacrifices, it points to Christ redeeming us. If anyone of us is stuck in a painful aftermath of disobedience to God, read Leviticus 26 and find hope. Read the whole chapter and pay particular attention to verses 44 onward. Despite it all, He keeps His covenant with us and loves us, so keep your eyes on Jesus, don’t falter in your sin.
We found him
We’ve been looking for an old man …for a few years now. Yesterday, we got some good news. We found his grandson … only we found him 3 months too late …too late. The old man died, probably wondering what had happened to all of us; Our old man probably felt abandoned by his people … his clan. We found him 3 months too late ……. only for griefs sake. I have found the elderly to be treasures, I seek them out, almost. My elderly family members are rare, so I try as much as possible to enjoy them while I have the chance. Death is certain, but it always hurts, even with the hope of Christ, it burns … I wish I could say otherwise, but today, I feel so so sad. We found him, a little too late …
Family
Family are the friends that God picks for us. Once they are gone, there’s no getting them back, so love them, treat them like the rare beauty they are. Don’t focus so much on what they do wrong, but look at their good and love them despite their flaws. Love big, love selflessly, like your life depends on it and expend your care, because there comes a time when you can’t shower that love on anyone.
