(Jesus continued talking with the Pharisees and scribes) For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother, and ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him surely die.’ But you say, ‘If anyone tells his father or his mother. What you would have gained from me is given to God, he need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God.
Matthew 15:4 – 6
Lord You were constantly at odds with the Pharisees and scribes. They wanted nothing to do with You. You kept trying to point them in the right direction but they were too steeped in their traditions to even listen to You.
Thank You Lord for not giving up on us when we don’t listen to You.
Thank You for speaking to us over and over and showing us the way to draw closer to You.
Thank You for the insight You alone can give.
Oh how blessed we are to have You in our lives Lord.
Thank You! Thank You Lord.
