I wrote my devotional this morning and posted it (www.minidevos.blogspot.com) and wondered ... am I lukewarm? Will the Lord spit me out of His mouth when the time comes? I am trusting that the progressive nature of our sanctification will allow me to continue to grow in the knowledge and grace of our Lord, but reading Revelation spooks me a little bit. I've never been able to understand a whole lot of it. I just figured if I lived a life that was pleasing to God according to my understanding of the standards He lays out in scripture then I was doing the right thing. I still believe that, but Revelation still spooks me. It gives me reason to question my walk. Am I really doing my best. I don't think the final book of the Bible is there to scare the h*ll out of us. I think it's there to instruct us and give us important things to consider, like all scripture. Are we living a life for ourselves in Jesus name or are we living for Jesus by His power and grace? Gives us something to ponder, doesn't it? rlkeller
