The Everyday Sabbath

He'll never reject you.

Published about 1 year ago • 1 min read

Luke 4:28-31

All the people in the synagogue were furious when they heard this. They got up, drove him out of the town, and took him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw him off the cliff. But he walked right through the crowd and went on his way.”

Then he went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath he taught the people.

The people in Jesus' home town rejected him because he looked ordinary to them. But Jesus continued his relentless pursuit of lost souls. On he went to the next town over.

Jesus still pursues lost souls through things that seem ordinary: his Word, Water, Bread & Wine.

Through these things he follows you with forgiveness. He will never reject you.

What comfort do you find in knowing Jesus will never reject you?

Matthew 4:1–4 [Nicodemus] came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Read the context Nicodemus was one of Israel's most educated men, and he still couldn't swim in the deep end. He couldn't understand who Jesus what his purpose was. But Jesus didn't meet...

Read the context My days of pulling all-nighters are over. Even if I once thought I could be productive at 3AM... I never really was. Your God does not get drowsy. While you sleep, he's watching. While you're awake and anxious, he's still watching. He won't drift off and miss the moment you need him. God never rests... so you can. Whatever...
