God speaks..... through "House" episode 7.15

In this particular scene during a recent episode of "House",  hospital administrator, Lisa Cuddy is breaking up with love interest, Dr. Gregory House.  It appears, that House's behvior is not worth the effort.  Part of the dialogue goes like this:

House:  I can do better.
Cuddy:  I don't think you can.  You will always choose you.

Think on this:  This is why we need a Savior.  Without Christ, we will always choose ourselves.  He does for us and in us what we could not do on our own.

Hebrews 2:14 (BBE): And because the children are flesh and blood, he took a body himself and became like them; so that by his death he might put an end to him who had the power of death, that is to say, the Evil One;....

God speaks..... through a closed up bookstore

On a recent walking trip through downtown Roanoke, I noticed an empty storefront that used to house a bookstore.  What struck my attention was the fact that a year or so ago, my family and I were chatised by the owner of the bookstore for looking at / reading books in the store.  Apparently, you were supposed to "judge the book by its cover" without touching.  Who knew?


Think on this:  Jesus has come that life, full life may be experienced.  Anytime we memorialize Jesus and place him on display, we are robbed of purpose and power.  Jesus is to be embraced and experienced through relationship.

John 1:41 - 42 (NKJV) ^"He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated, the Christ).  And he brought him to Jesus."

John 4:42 (NKJV) "Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
