A nativity from Christmas... still graces the shelf in my kitchen... intentional... not forgotten...
There to remind me of His presence in the world... the sacrifices made... Mary's... Joseph's... Jesus's... for Him to come...To understand better... who He is...
naked... wrapped in swaddling cloths...
hungry... a newborn's cry to be filled...
imprisoned... the Creator confined...infinite to infant...
out of love for others... to save... rescue... redeem...
My goal... to know Him better...
...be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position.
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
2Peter 3:17:18
(my emphasis)
...growing knowledge of Jesus protects from deception...
...the new self... is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
Colossians 3:10
(my emphasis)
...the new self renewed in knowledge of Him... becoming more like Him...
Reminders set to set my mind in a position to know more... to know the Word made flesh...
Do you have reminders?
What are they for?
Do you have any focused on the eternal?
Remind yourself... grow in knowledge of Him...
