Trittenish Thoughts: August 3, 2015

http://lotrittens.blogspot.com/2015/08/august-3-2015.html

Reading God's Word to be shaped by the Holy Spirit into Christ's likeness. Monday, August 03, 2015. August 3, 2015. There are many who hate God’s will and resist Him with violence in this world.

It happens in a wide variety of ways, but God’s people have always lived as aliens in a hostile land. This prayer is written with the themes of Instruction and Thanksgiving. August 5,...

Reading God's Word to be shaped by the Holy Spirit into Christ's likeness. Tuesday, August 04, 2015. August 4, 2015. This reading is challenging. Jesus seems to be excluding people and making them uncomfortable. He probed their preconceived notions of who God is, how He works, and how people relate to Him.

Father in...

Reading God's Word to be shaped by the Holy Spirit into Christ's likeness. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. June 30, 2015. It cannot be denied that Jesus faced rejection in his ministry.
