Thursday

I am now in the book of Hebrews and am reading about how much better it is for us now than it was for the Jews under Moses' Law. As I read about the access we have through Jesus and the hope we have I am again impressed and humbled by the love God has for us. And then I read about Isreal's disobedience and how God viewed it. In one place He calls it unbelief, in another disobedience. Have you ever thought about what causes us to disobey? Hebrews teaches it is unbelief. So what exactly are you doing when you disobey? You are basically saying that you do not believe God knows what He is talking about. You do not believe He will punish the disobedient. You do not believe He will care for you when you obey. What an insult to the One who loves us most.
