!!!!!!!!
Good Night Snippy. I need to try and get some sleep. Been pushing too hard. Lend me some hours from your day?
Good morning, Snippy and everyone at the Freeper Foxhole. It's hot and humid here in SW Ok. this Treadhead Tuesday.
Read: Romans 5:6-11
We love Him because He first loved us. 1 John 4:19
Bible In One Year: Psalms 26-28; Acts 22
It's not easy to understand the depth of Gods love for us. Because of our pride and fear, we fail to grasp how undeserving we are and how free His love is.
At times I struggle with pride, so I tend to believe that I have earned any love I receive. Pride tells me that I am loved only when I am lovable, respectable, and worthy.
At other times I feel the tug of fear. Deep down inside, I know that I dont deserve the love I get. My motives are never pure, and I fear I will be rejected if they are exposed. So even while I am basking in acceptance, I live with the fear of being unmasked, revealing that I am much less than what others think me to be.
When I consider my relationship with God, therefore, I tend to feel that His affection for me is based on my performance. When I do well, He loves me; but if I foul up, then I expect only His scorn.
Yet God does not love us because we deserve it. He loves us in spite of what we are. In 1 John 4:10 we read,In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son." Because of what Jesus Christ has done for us, we know we are always loved by God. That simple truth shatters our pride and dispels our fear. Haddon Robinson

It's great to be back to understanding only 10% of "Treadhead Tuesday"!
Hey, call me ignorant (okay . . . ignorant!) but I can't believe this tank was created in the 60s and is now retired?!?!?
