FORGET THE FACE
Lately I have been reading bible reading plan. It is structure to learn the Word of God, to have a greater knowledge and wisdom of who God Is.
Charles William Eliot, one of the greatest presidents of Harvard University, was born with a serious facial disfigurement. When he was older he became sensitive about his disfigurement, his mother said, "My son, it is not possible for you to get rid of this handicap. His parents consulted the best physicians and they could do nothing for him. But it is possible, with God's help, to grow a soul and mind so big that people will see you through God's Eyes." This is exactly what he did. Today, he is recognized as one of the educators who shaped modern secondary education.
Paul talked about the only begotten Son of God willfully coming to earth and humbling Himself to become a man. He further subjected Himself to the disfigurement of the cross. His life, death, and resurrection force us to look beyond that ugliness to the glory of His salvation. One day every knee will bow before this Lord of lords!
Like the writer of this reading plan wrote; Christ is a prime example of obedience, Jesus lived a life pleasing to his father knowing the ultimate sacrifice. Jesus Christ was an atonement of sin for mankind.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that whosoever believeth he him should perish, but have eternal life.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him " I am the way the truth and the life No man cometh unto the father except through me.
This reading plan is a year long, a year of growing closer to God, learning to be christlike not only in spirit but also in the flesh being mindful that, Jesus paid the ultimate price.
Father, God Lord Jesus Thank for your Love, and Mercy in Jesus Name Amen.
