Instead of pulling out the whip of chastisement lets pull out the word of God and disciple those that need to be redirected, those that need guidance and those who feel like giving up. Jesus bled to wash all of our sins not just for the select and the elite but for the bruised, the battered and the bloodied with shame.

God gives us multiple choice exams everyday. The question is are we selecting the right reaction, the right words, the right thoughts? Or are we rewriting the entire syllabus to fit our ways and our personalities? Are we repeating introductory lessons because we are not allowing Gods plan to change us or are we surpassing to the next level with the materials He has supplied us with?

The Wilderness menu consisted of water from rocks, manna in the mornings and quail at midnight. God knew just what the Israelites needed to survive. Yet they thought that wasn't enough. Manna was given with the exact measure for every person and family. God already did the mathematical calculations. He didn't forget anyone. Yet they grumbled and complained that it wasn't enough. Sound familiar?

Are we seeking God for things more than seeking Him?

More than anything Jesus knew how to stir the hearts of the people as if he were reading the codes that were being transcribed with every beat of their chest. HOLD ON…. Jesus knew how to decode before it was a thing! Love that!!

God saw all that he had made, and it was very good." Just like God our words have power and so does our attitude. What if God looked at what he created and said "Dang, I could've done better!" It wouldn't be good.

When we love God and the things of God Jesus will reveal things we don't see with the human eye. He will never leave us in the dark. Just like a best friend you know his secrets. He whispers the mystery of the kingdom any time of the day. He let's you hold the keys!
