The most significant bit of information for us to remember each day is the goodness of the Lord. In troubling times we can easily close down our “saving” memories of God’s presence when moments of pain and frustration confront us. We forget the wonderful things that God has done for...

Help me, faithful God, to remember today your goodness to me, and draw me ever closer to your life so that I may experience your love and your touch. Amen.

Resumen de la Escritura

Sometimes we get ourselves into trouble by our words and actions. It’s okay to admit it. It happens to all of us. The Israelites experienced this when their constant grumbling provoked God’s wrath in Numbers 21. Yet even in this story, God provides the means of salvation. The psalmist echoes the refrain that when we put ourselves in bad positions, we may cry out to the Lord for deliverance. We read in Ephesians that all of us were living in disobedience to God, but God has done all the work of reconciliation by grace given through Christ Jesus. John ties all this together, gesturing to the story in Numbers 21 to teach us that Christ is the means of restoration and salvation for all who believe in him.
