FACE the BOOK.

  A great avenue of communication, community and College party pictures has been FaceBook. For me I have communicated through pictures, posts and messaging relatives I haven,t see since childhood.  It is both a deep as well as shallow channel for community relationship and conversation.  Face book also opens the door for ministry to scores of people anywhere at the same time.

  God's book is Him, communicating to us. It is His revelation of Himself and His desire for relationship, reconciliation and love!  Through the Holy Spirit the eyes of our hearts are enlightened  by the Word as to what God's will is.  Similar to someone commenting just a few minutes ago on Face book,  this word written long ago is just as real, personal and fresh today!
 
  As cool as everyone considers Face book (and  Twitter), Don't even think, I compare it to the relevance and importance of this Holy Word. God said to Joshua and us "You shall not let the law of the Lord depart from your mouth but meditate in it day and night that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it." 

  No matter your education level, finances or percentage of body fat, we are to face this book and respond to what it is saying.  Let me challenge us both to open it's pages, and post back to God:  "What are you trying to say to me?"

  In the New testament James wrote a post:  "But be doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.  For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing himself in a mirror, and walks away forgetting what kind of man he was.  But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it,  and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does."

  God had Paul post:  "For all  have sinned and fallen short of the glory of  God "
Paul also commented : "The wages or payment of sin is death."   "But the gift of God is eternal life.."
Jesus said:  "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."   later Paul wrote" Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved"

  After we believe in Him and God  miraculously makes us new?  We share it.

                                   It's time to face the music. It's time to face the book!
