Scripture: Hebrews 12:28-29
Therefore, rx since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, help let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,for our “God is a consuming fire.”

Thought for the Day: “God is a consuming fire.” Until you’ve experienced that, it’s hard to explain, isn’t it? Do you remember that first moment you sort of awakened and had that “ah-ha!” moment with God? It is an all-consuming moment, frozen in time by the fire that never consumes. It’s intense and amazing. I know you’ve had an experience like that. We’ve all had experiences like that. The question is, did we notice? Did we embrace the change, or did fear cause us to ignore God’s invitation to become even more intimately involved with the universe?

Were we in awe when we realized God not only existed, but was somehow activating every cell of our bodies with completely new programming, showing us a bigger picture of the universe, of being? It’s all consuming, this new sense God reveals, during, and forever after the experience. It changes our attitude about what it means to exist completely. IT causes us to look ay everyone on the planet as a relative. Personally, it keeps me in a near-constant state of deeply grateful awe.

Prayer: Endless God of all being, you fill me with wonder! Infinitely unfathomable, intimately loving, you constantly permeate our consciousness, changing us, teaching us, expanding our hearts. Expand my heart today, dear God. Expand the world’s heart. Amen.
