Beats From Your Pastor’s Heart:
Romans 11:36, “For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.”
We must see that God’s most basic dealing in our lives is to bring us into Himself as our source.
Every part of our being is destined to live out of God as our source.
In this entire universe, God is reconciling all things to Himself through Jesus Christ.
This means that God is seeking to have His rightful place in the universe as the unique source of everything.
This is the meaning of reconciliation individually, corporately, and universally–that God would be the source and the spring from which everything proceeds.
This is not only the basic revelation of the Bible, but also the present movement, or current, of history.
The destiny of the earth is that the kingdom of God would come in reality, where God is all in all (1 Cor. 15:28).
Everything in this universe is ultimately unto Him.
God is at work in our lives and in the church to make Himself our source.
For example, He wants to be the source of our thoughts.
He wants to be the source for us to deal with our wandering mind.
It is not a matter of our attempting to handle our thoughts by ourselves, but of our coming to the true source of thought life–God Himself.
Interacting with God as our source supplies us to deal with the maze of thoughts that spring from our independent thinking.
God is at work in our lives to establish Himself as the very source of our thought life.
Until Tomorrow,
With A Shepherd’s Love
