Summary
Lord, we ask that you would teach us today, that you would lead us by your spirit to know you better, to know the truth that is your word, and to know that we are loved by you. Say to them, as I live, says the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from their ways and live, turn back. And as one who mourns yet finds relief in the death of their loved one for the sake of their loved one, you don't have to have regret for having that relief because the pain is over, the pain is done. And so we know, we know He leads the way and we know that we go into the eternity, into eternal life, with Him, facing Him, in His presence. If we go back to the New Testament in Philippians, so this is going to be right after Galatians, Ephesians, we're going to find ourselves in Philippians chapter 1, verses, or beginning in verse 21. I love those verses that Jesus tells about how heaven rejoices over one repentance sinner that you can imagine the multitude of angels singing and praising God when there is a repentance sinner, when there is one who turns to the Lord.
