Profound things I encountered today:
Nowhere in Genesis 3 does it say that the serpent was the devil. It simply says there was the serpent. The snake does not lie. His "half-truths" end up becomming fulfilled.
There are three ways to be lost. And I am all of them.
I am lost because someone lost me. I am too easily distracted.
I am lost because I don't think and I am too good at befriending the "thieves"
I am lost because I deliberately went the wrong way.
And for that my shepherd will search night and day for me and when I come home He will robe me in honor, give me the ring of mastery and give me shoes of brotherhood.
Things I definitely don't deserve nor understand.
"a God whose name is Love."
How closed my eyes are. How off the path I am.
How blessed I am that he lets me find my own way but loves me just the same.
