Meaningful Moments with God - Day 18

In my quiet time with God this morning I reflected on what a sacrifice Jesus made for me when He took my place and died for my sin. How “awesome“ God is, that when we began to read John almost 3 weeks ago, that today would be the day that we would read about the events that took place on that Thursday 2000 years ago. In John chapter 18, our reading for today, which falls on Thursday, lines up with what Jesus experienced when He observed the Passover with his disciples and was arrested on that Thursday long ago.
Spending some time with God this morning and thinking over the chapter in John that I read, helps me appreciate God’s love for me. These scriptures are so familiar to us, they can be read and passed over lightly unless we take the time to reflect on them and allow the Holy Spirit to penetrate our hearts with them. It is in these quiet moments that the scriptures come “alive “ in us and grow us in our faith. Thank God for these quiet times with Him and His Word.
