Jesus is the BETTER gift.
Jesus is the BETTER offering.
21 As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. 2 He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. 3 “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 4 All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”
Jesus is the BETTER offering who in giving himself completely satisfied God forever.
May we rest in the fact that Jesus offered himself as the best and BETTER gift and no other gift in life compares to him.
Jesus is the BETTER word
Luke 21:33
29 He told them this parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees. 30 When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. 31 Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near.
32 “Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
May we see that Jesus ushered in the Kingdom of God when he came down to earth.
It is here! Now!
May we not rest on the frail words and speeches of men, no matter how eloquent they are.
Luke 21:34-38
34 “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. 35 For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36 Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”
37 Each day Jesus was teaching at the temple, and each evening he went out to spend the night on the hill called the Mount of Olives, 38 and all the people came early in the morning to hear him at the temple.
May we never find full satisfaction in the worldly talking, music and noise that idolizes self.
May we never stop listening to Jesus, day and night and reflecting on His words, reflecting on Himself.
Look to Jesus constantly, Look at Jesus, meditate on his person, his being, his life and his words daily.
