I challenge all of us Men as we run into the early form of Valentines day to not just show our appreication of our M's tomorrow but be the biblical Men we are called to be and show it every day. I challenge us all to lead in our homes and live everyday as an example of how Christ loves his church.

 

I have been reading Isaiah lately and amidst the gloom that was the old testement and everything Judah had done to push God away…he offered hope with a simple promise which is shown below. We no longer need to follow all the rituatls and sacrifices because Christ made one sacrifice for us. The only one any of us needs and he has made us as white as snow as Judah was promised long ago if they would turn away from their sins.

 

We start in the gloom and the rain…and as dirty as we are…we come out white as snow.

 

Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.
