Readings:
Job 39
II Corinthians 5:11-21
Focus:
II Corinthians 5:20b: "It is as if God were appealing to you through us: we implore you in Christ's name, be reconciled to God!"
This verse strikes me when I read this passage. God doesn't just offer us the chance to be reconciled to him. He appeals to us. He implores us to be reconciled to him. He really, really wants it!
God has a great love for us. He has shown this by coming himself to take our punishment and die for us. And he doesn't just give us the chance to acknowledge this. He appeals, implores, begs us to acknowledge it. He dearly loves us. All we need to do is to respond.
