Day 118- SOAP

Day 118

Jeremiah 8-13

Scripture: 10 24 Correct me, LORD, but only with justice—
not in your anger,
lest you reduce me to nothing.

Observation: Don’t correct us in your anger because that would destroy us, correct us with justice only.

Application: So I love this part of Jeremiah’s prayer..it is like God yes please correct me when I do something wrong but please don’t do it in anger because that would be severe and there will be nothing left over of me! I feel the same sometimes ( a lot of times actually!) so I pray to God everyday to keep me close to Him and not to let me stray from Him, but then I also slip in to do this gently please and not like the first time hahaha I mean the more I read in the bible the more I see what God is capable of and I don’t even understand half of it! So imagine He lets go of all that wrath on you because of your sins etc…eish that will be massive…so moral of the story, listen to Him and follow His path for you and don’t sin! :)

Prayer: Father thank you for your words every day. Thank you that you speak to us through your word and this way let us get closer to you. But thank you also that you correct us because you love us and want what is best for us. (but yes again, correct me as gently as possible please ;)) or help me to walk so closely to you that I don’t need correction?(not gonna happen right, I still have a long way to go;)) Please go with every one doing the reading with me and give them the strength to keep reading and getting to know you, we ask this in your name…Amen
