IGNORING THE ACHES AND PAINS
Today's reading: John 5-6
"But afterward Jesus found him in the Temple and told him, Now you are well; so stop sinning--or something even worse may happen to you." John 5:14 NLT
This man had spent 38 years of his life consumed by the physical ailments he had.
Now that he was up and going, able to live, on his two feet, Jesus reminds him that the heart issues are much more important.
I needed that reminder.
I needed to be told, in such a loving way, that this perishable body is just that--perishable.
But my heart? My heart is what's His. My heart is what will keep me from or get me into the Kingdom of God.
I've got to attend to it!
