Today Oswald Chambers' devotion was Romans 8:37; "Nay, in all things, we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us."

How appropriate as I begin my journey! On that verse he went on to say, "Paul is speaking of the things that might seem likely to seperate or wedge in between the saint and the love of God; but the remarkable thing is that nothing can wedge in between the love of God and the saint. These things can and do come in between the devotional exercises of the soul and God and seperate individual life from God; but none of them is able to wedge in between the love of God and the soul of the saint."

Praise the Lord! Even though we place wedges in place, God never does! He reaches beyond the wedges, walls, obsessions, weaknesses and cravings and gives us the power to overcome those obstacles and take away those wedges so that we can have open communion with Him! Hallelujah!

For my daily bible reading, I am working my way through the book of Acts. This morning I read the first 3 chapters. I was struck by the awakening of the saints as the apostles spread the life, death and ressurection of Jesus Christ to all who would hear! What a powerful time. I know that I need that kind of awakening; the wide-eyed wonder and delight of a child as they hear and see all that Christ has done! We can have that again! Open the word of God, immerse yourself in it, believe God and feel new life coursing through your soul!! Praise God! Hallelujah!
