Hebrews 13:20-21
May God, who puts all things together,
makes all things whole,
Who made a lasting mark through the sacrifice of Jesus,
the sacrifice of blood that sealed the eternal covenant,
Who led Jesus, our Great Shepherd,
up and alive from the dead,
Now put you together,
provide you with everything you need to please him,
Make us into what gives him most pleasure,
by means of the sacrifice of Jesus, the Messiah.
All glory to Jesus forever and always!
I struggle for something profound to say here. Perhaps the verses say it all. No wait, maybe there is a thought. God puts all things together. God makes all things whole. We get impatient along the way, but we don't really need to know what He's doing...we would just try to give Him advice anyways. What a relief, because I'm confused a lot of the time. Provide us with everything we need to please Him...I recall Scriptures that say He already is pleased with us...by means of the sacrifice of Jesus.
Seems to me it's all been done. All been figured out. We don't know what that means but that's okay. He does.
