"The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing."(Psalm 23:1)
"God said:
See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he will prepare your way"
- Marcus 1.1
It links to:
"Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts."
- Malachi 3.3
You are sure wondering, what that DOES MEAN?
It means that God sent a messenger ahead of Jesus, he arrived suddenly at their temple.
Why? He would bring those that forge a alliance with the people. On this case, clearly Jesus himself.
You are sure wondering, why this is important?
A Alliance with God means two things:
*Obey his law;
*Accept Christ as your savior;
This matters because I can assure you: WHILE PAINFUL AT TIMES, THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN BEING A CHRIST SERVENT.
Is only natural you think that will hurt because people will disagree to several degrees, and that is fine. So don't ever, let that go over your brain, just live the moment.
It really is that simple! :D
