The Jesus Pages: On the Outside Looking In

Read Matthew 7

You've spent a lot of time, money and resources building your life and now it's time to step outside of yourself and see what you've done. Do the outside and the inside match in style, decor, personality? How much pretension is going on? Do you cultivate the outside and let trash pile up on the inside? Pick at others' exteriors while neglecting your own interior? Have you invited God to be your partner or are you content to do it on your own?

Did you realize that He is more than happy to help with the yard work, painting, clean up? He has a 24/7 service! How does your garden grow? Do you have plants that have to be pruned? Then stop watering them and start lopping off those parts that are worthless and aren't producing anything! And, are you taking care of those cracks in your foundation? You better hurry before the bad weather comes and your basement fills with water.

The Jesus Pages is my journey through the New Testament in one year. I invite you to come along, read the Bible passage and leave comments. (If it's nasty or unrelated, I reserve the right to delete it.)
