HERE'S YOUR SIGN
Today's reading: Galatians 1-3

"Oh, foolish Galatians! What magician has cast an evil spell on you? For you used to see the meaning of Jesus Christ's death as clearly as  though I had shown you a signboard with a picture of Christ dying on the cross." Galatians 3:1 NLT

I'm not sure I've ever noticed this verse.

Read it? Yes. Had it jump off the page at me and hit me in the stomach? No.

Written to the Galatian church many years ago, it could be applicable today, couldn't it?

Have we not forgotten the real meaning of Christ's death on the cross?

Has it become 'old hat'?

Is it now 'old news'?

Maybe a magician has not cast a spell on us, but has complacency set in?

Have we become too comfortable with the Good News?

Are there to many things vying for our attention when He should be first and foremost?

Have we become too accustomed to seeing the picture of Jesus on the cross, that it has become less than moving?

Have we forgotten He did it all for us?

Have I?

Have you?

Have we?
