Marker pens are hard to get out of kids clothes. They make washable ones, but those aren’t nearly as fun, for some reason… Worse than a stain I know I’ll never get out is one that fades just a little each time I scrub on it, giving me hope that someday, if I work hard enough, the stain will be totally gone. Ha.
When we get saved, God starts the long process of scrubbing out
from us the mindset of the world. We
were born into this fallen place, and until God starts His changing work, the
mindset of it looks pretty permanent.
With each scrub, God is removing the stain… The less there is, the more I see things from
His point of view. Living by wisdom
makes for such a great life because we’re in harmony with the universe! God wove His wisdom into it as He created
it.
I love the language Neil uses: He has made His will known primarily in His
word, and He delights when we humbly submit to it and obey it.
God delights in us!
That’s what I’m going to be chewing on today.
Plus, I think I’m going to hide the markers…
