Scripture

Isaiah 50:5-6

5. The Soverign Lord has opened my ears, and I have not been rebellious; I have not drawn back. 6. I offered my back to those who beat me my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard;

Acts 1: 11

‘Men of Galilee,’ they said, ‘why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come bck in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.

Observation

Jesus spoke to his apostles over 40 days and spoke about the kingdom of God. Jesus tells them not to leave Jerusalem for there is a gift that was promised by the Father. Jesus was then taken up into the clouds and two men in white addressed the apostles.

Application

What I feel the word of God is telling me through these scriptures is to love your enemy’s unconditionally. It is easy to talk the talk, but to actually walk the walk is a different story. The love that God has for us is unconditional, even though we may make mistakes throughout our life God will always be there and love us with out question.

Prayer

Dear heavenly father, I just pray that you will give me the strength to share your love with those around me. Allow me to show the unconditional love that you show towards me, to those whom it may be hard to do so. Lord I know I’m not the perfect person, probably far from it, but I just pray that you continue to show me the way to becoming a better person and to be more like you. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
