Hebrews 3-4
Paul encouraged the Saints to live righteously so they could enter into God’s rest, which means His presence. Because some of the children of Israel in Moses’ time hardened their hearts, refused to repent, and would not believe, they were unable to enter into God’s rest. I love the part of these chapters that tells us to 'exhort one another daily.' To me this means to be an example of humility, faith, and love and to gently help each other repent and become worthy to enter into God’s rest or His presence. These ideas are so calming and joyful and full of love. No I don't think I'm the picture of humility, faith, love, and gentleness, but I strive for this; I pray and hope for this.

Reading the scriptures and keeping this journal are my delight. I do not keep an online journal to preach to anyone but myself. I like this format, because I can add pictures and correct my writing easier. If you enjoy reading it, I am happy. If you feel offended, please, realize it is not my intention to offend but to teach myself. No negative comments will not be published.
