The meditation is so much more complete. It is unfortunate you do not include a scripture on Mondays. The meditation is so much more complete.

We need to keep reminding each other what God gave us when he gave us his son, to "abide within and be inhabited by the intimacy of God’s presence." Well stated. It doesn't feel like it much of the time but yes, we we must acknowledge, God made us holy when Jesus said yes to the Father's will. Thanks be to God for Jesus' death and resurrection. Thanks for reminding us. I love this quote by Barbara Crafton: "We are not christians just because we think Jesus rose from the dead, but because we think we will too!" Jerry from Allentown, Pa.

That we should be chosen to receive that revelation is humbling and awesome. Thank you, Jesus, for your resurrection life in me. And thank you, Adriel, for sharing your experience of how God draws us to life and relationship with Him. The truth you share is realized by God’s revelation.

He created a pattern for us as followers of God. A pattern for what? He created a pattern for us so that we might be willing to live in God and be willing to die if we met God and this was required of us. However, our 'job' in life is to live for Him and to allow Him to live in us. Have you allowed Him to meet you and show you why you are living today? This is allowing Him to live in us!

WE have just finished Exodus and begun Leviticus. The "holiness" of the priests is a key truth emphasized over and over. The scriptues tell us that we through Yeshua we too are now priests able to enter the Holy of Holies. God's life is in us by the Spirit. What a wonderful pre Easter focus and insight you have shared.
