Daddy blog

I started this blog when I was following the Life Journal Bible reading plan on YouVersion. (I've since completed that plan.) At that time, YouVersion didn't provide any way for people to respond to my notes, other than to "like" them. So this blog is here to remedy that problem. You may comment on my notes here in the comment section.
I also have a general blog.

True worshippers

21/6/14

S: Psalm 50:7-10 “O my people, listen as I speak. Here are my charges against you, O Israel: I am God, your God! I have no complaint about your sacrifices or the burnt offerings you constantly offer. But I do not need the bulls from your barns or the goats from your pens. For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills.

Psalm 50:16-17 But God says to the wicked: “Why bother reciting my decrees and pretending to obey my covenant? For you refuse my discipline and treat my words like trash.

Psalm 50:22-23 Repent, all of you who forget me, or I will tear you apart, and no one will help you. But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me. If you keep to my path, I will reveal to you the salvation of God.”

O: There is no point being a great philantropist donating vast sums of money if you're evil. Remember the incident of the widow with 2 copper coins? (Luke 21:11-4)

A: To obey is better than sacrifice. (1 Samuel 15:22)


P: Father, when I am tempted to do wrong, remind me of this truth. In Jesus' name, amen.
