Today’s Thought “Broken Toy” G. Ward

Matthew 5

⁴ “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.”

 

Great misrepresentation of scripture will assume this mourning as pertinent to general sorrows of sorts, but this pertains to a godly sorrow after spiritual disconnect (i.e., disobedience) and while we need to experience HIS unrelenting care for us (1 Pe.5:7), the perfect restoration onto peace happens when we’re entirely uncomfortable (i.e., truly remorseful) with personal depravity.

Our Lord’s understanding of temptation unbecoming of holiness also plagued Him while in earth and only HE walked circumspect of a perfect, consecrated, holy life (*Heb.4:15). Altogether, HIS example, along with such sacrifice, bought the portion in us so entirely imperfect (i.e., our humanity) allowing such uninhibited intimacy with Holy God (Heb.1:1-2).

May our desire to never grow up and move out of the Father’s House remain.
