“And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.”
2 Timothy 2:24-26 ESV

This struck me this morning.

I’m asking myself: “Who is it that I need to replace arguing with kindness ?

Who might you?

“But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. Turn to me and be gracious to me; give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant. Show me a sign of your favor, that those who hate me may see and be put to shame because you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭86:15-17‬ ‭ESV‬‬

When you rise, and contemplate this Vista, how could you not give glory to he who created it?

How could you not contemplate his power, his Majesty?

When you consider the greatness, the vastness of the sea, and know that he created it, yet loves you, how can you turn not to him?

He is great. He is alive. He loves you. And he sent his son, the perfect Jesus, to die for you, to rise for you, to bring you to a place of acceptance, because of what he did.

Turn to him.

Worship him.
