Thoughts: 28/2/06

I've been getting more revelation on the fact that our lives are really only a blink. It's already the last day of february. I still can't really believe I'm 21. I never really thought about being 21 years old, and then all of a sudden it was my 21st birthday. The revelation brings a sense of urgency with it. Everyday people all over the world people are dying without knowing the love of Jesus. It brings a challenge with it. Are you living each day as if it's your last? Are you walking in intimacy with the Lord? Are you looking for every opportunity in each day to serve the lord? Are you being active in sharing your faith? This morning our a time of worship and prayer here on the base. We watched a bit of The Passion of Christ. The film is so hard to watch. I was sitting there watching it this morning, we were watching the end of the film where Jesus is nailed to the cross, as I watched, I just felt dirty, i felt worthless kind of, like who was I to even sit in this presence. I even turned away at different points. But through it all the thing that really stuck out to me this morning was the fact that the veil in the temple was torn. The holy of holies is open for all to enter. We can come into the presence of God anytime, because of the fact that he died for us. Because of His grace. That is an amazing thing. Matthew 27:51
