CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. Genesis 1:1‭-‬3 NASB1995 

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” Genesis 1:26 NASB1995 

If you want to be reminded about how small we truly are, read the creation account in Genesis. God made mankind in His own image. Some times we may try to twist that around and make God out to be who we want Him to be. The fact is that He created us. We need to take our place at His feet, be obedient to His will, and submissive to His word.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
God, Touch Our Hearts (John Piper)
Saul went to his house at Gibeah; and the valiant men whose hearts God had touched went with him. (1 Samuel 10:26)
Just think of what is being said in this verse. God touched them. Not a wife. Not a child. Not a parent. Not a counselor. But God.
The One with infinite power in the universe. The One with infinite authority and infinite wisdom and infinite love and infinite goodness and infinite purity and infinite justice. That One touched their heart.
How does the circumference of Jupiter touch the edge of a molecule? Let alone penetrate to its nucleus?
The touch of God is awesome because it is a touch. It is a real connection. That it involves the heart is awesome. That it involves God is awesome. And that it involves an actual touch is awesome.
The valiant men were not just spoken to. They were not just swayed by a divine influence. They were not just seen and known. God, with infinite condescension, touched their heart. God was that close. And they were not consumed.
I love that touch. I want it more and more. For myself and for all of you. I pray that God would touch me anew for his glory. I pray that he would touch us all.
O for the touch of God! If it comes with fire, so be it. If it comes with water so be it. If it comes with wind, let it come, O God. If it comes with thunder and lightning, let us bow before it.
O Lord, come. Come that close. Burn and soak and blow and crash. Or still and small, come. Come all the way. Touch our hearts.

MOLESKIN:
This Q and BOM/COT were originally from January of this year and it remains as true to speaking to my heart as it did pre-COVID at the beginning of the year – not because I have not changed but because God is wrought this in my life even more this year.

January 2020: “There is something about the phrase “the valiant men whose hearts God had touched” that inspires me, and rouses a hunger in me. I have found myself in this new year hungrier for a deeper, more powerful, intimate closeness with God. I believe it’s the natural consequence of F3 and my purity group, and what God is doing in my family and church. At the beginning of the year, I felt God give me the word FOCUS. Makes me wonder about what this year will be like. Whatever else 2020 may bring, this hunger for greater friendship with God is a worthy and holy pursuit.”

Who knew what the year would have brought except God Himself?!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
In Paul’s letter to the Christians at Colossae (and by extension us), he speaks to the incomparable Christ. Christ rescued them from darkness, He is the head of the Body (the Church), and He gave the ultimate sacrifice. Take a look at this passage.

“And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister.” Colossians 1:21‭-‬23 NASB

Despite our evil deeds, Christ died that we may be reconciled. However, we shouldn’t miss the qualifying statement. If we continue in faith, we are able to stay reconciled to God through His sacrifice.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I Peter 1:24-25: “since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God; 24 for “All flesh is like grass
and all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
and the flower falls,
25 but the word of the Lord remains forever.”

And this word is the good news that was preached to you.

In troubled and troubling times, it’s good to know that at least one thing remains: God’s word. His word is as enduring as God is eternal. He is faithful – what He says, He will do.
