*Christ to the Laodiceans*
~18~
I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
~19~
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

We read this tonight in devotions as a family.
(Actually, chapters one through three, but these two verses stuck out particularly to me :)
Aren't they encouraging?!
...A beautiful reassurance that...
~God's amazing Grace saved a wretch like me!~
~I was blind, but now I see!~
~Chastening of God's children = His Love for us!~
Speaking of God's love!
...
Isn't it amazing that Christ took the punishment for our sins?!
WOW.
I'm amazed every time I think of it!
:)
Ok, it's late y'all and I gotta take Liv to co-op tomorrow morning.
*yawn*
Till next time, I pray this (short and sweet)post blesses and encourages you :)
