Colossians 3.18-4.18-Do your work willingly, as though you were serving the Lord himself, and not just your earthly master.
Ezekiel 31-32-Don’t be arrogant or proud of myself-God will chop you down like a tree
Isaiah 56-my saving power will be seen everywhere on earth
John 14.1-7-No one comes to the Father except through me.
Revelation 21.1-7-See, the home of God is among mortals.
Psalm 126-The LORD has done great things for us
"The chain is not stainless steel."- The chain in a hoist- it must be stainless steel to withstand the effects of the acid in the dipping tanks. It needs to be a special chain for a special purpose- This chain can not be proud or arrogant- it is in a harsh environment and has a tough job to do- it must be stainless so that it will be safe from the acid of the world it works in- the stainless steel chain has a tough job- but it needs to work like it is working for God- the one who gives it the composition needed to survive in the world in which it exists- you see this stainless steel chain is stainless because there is a God so great that he came into the harsh environment of this chain and lived there to see what type of chain was needed- God did a great thing and saved the life of this chain by making it stainless steel- and God’s saving power is seen throughout the world of this stainless steel chain- God gives the armor to exist and live in this world- "The chain is not stainless steel."- Somehow I think God will change all that and make this chain just what it needs to be.
Prayer- Lord, thank you for giving me all I need to live in this harsh environment- you have made my world a blessed and loving place. -- Amen
