loose ends tightly wrapped up


Wednesday January 16th, Luke 3: 15 The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John might possibly be the Christ.  John brought the people more than just business as usual.  He brought them the hope that comes from God, forgiveness that comes from God, new life and fresh starts that come from God.  He brought them a peek into the glory that was coming and what the world was called to be from the beginning of time.  If you have two coats, give one away, same with your food!!!  Tax collectors, collect no more than what is required by the law!!!  Soldiers, no more shakedowns, no blackmail, and be content with your rations!!!!!   What was this teaching they wondered?  Could this be the Messiah they wondered?  John said, hang onto your hats, you haven’t seen anything yet!!!  And in that way, John prepared the way for the kingdom that was coming.  Have you prepared your lives and your heart for the kingdom that is coming or are you still hanging onto your things?  Let go and Let God into your life.  Sometimes we have all the loose ends so tightly wrapped up that even God has a hard time getting in.
