When I think about no more separation I am reminded of the fact that so many do not accept God with us. They don't want God with us. They desire separation. Yes it cost Him everything, which is a great amount. And yes it cost me, but that really isn't much compared to Him. I desire and cling to His promise
Jon- great insight! Thanks for your sharing!
ReplyDeleteClinging to the promise created a visual for me of Jacob clinging to the "God-Man." Jacob desired God's promise and got an expected, confusing, and passionate wrestling of all things to leave Jacob clinging to the God/man. I When I think of your post about "clinging to His promise" and Jacob I can't help but land on Galatians 3:16 - 16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,”[i] meaning one person, who is Christ. " I am challenged by your post to allow the promised seed to wrestle out of me selfish desires and wrestle into me trust in Him in all circumstances.
