Tempted

For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

Hebrews 2:18

Reading:

Matthew 1:18-25; Hebrews 2:14-18

Is my justice directed by grace?

Did I notice God with me yesterday?

Am I prompt to obey (and precise as well)?

“Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren…” (Hebrews 2:17).

Why would Jesus want to be like I?

When was the last time I turned to Him during temptation?

Fulfillment

For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.

Proverbs 9:11

Reading:

Proverbs 9:1-12

She is inviting me.

She has prepared for me.

She wants to give something to me.

“Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled” (Proverbs 9:5).

How I need her!

How I want her!

But how little I consciously focus her. 🙁

Wisdom.
