Like a forest laid like waste after oil is extracted,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019d wish evil could be also eradicated!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ezekiel 33:11<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Say to them, As I live, says the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from their ways and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways; for why will you die, O house of Israel?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matthew 6:13<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And do not bring us to the time of trial, but rescue us from the evil one.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of Grace For Today<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would like to eradicate evil from the earth, especially by wiping out others who are caught in evil they have little interest in escaping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evil-cide!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Let it be gone forever!\u2019 We cry, until we realize that would eliminate us, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, having come to our senses, we start to notice once again that God\u2019s way of dealing with evil is not to kill it off, but<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to forgive it, transform it, and use it<\/p>\n\n\n\n

as a demonstration of how Great God\u2019s Deeds are in redeeming us who are irredeemable, really!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we are bold to pray that we might not succumb to the Evil One, but that God would once again save us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s a good start to the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now our purpose also this day is to be God\u2019s instruments by which others are saved from the Evil One. Not a small task, and it\u2019s only possible by the work of the Holy Spirit in us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another day. Another miracle. Lots of work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
