So today marks the fourth day of Jillian Michael's 30-day shred. Tish and I haven't done it yet, but we are going to do it soon. I am doing ok today. I am a little sore right above my knees (weird) and my arms hurt a little too, but no where near as much as they have the last couple of days, which makes me really happy, because that means that I am getting into some sort of shape...I guess.
We read Matthew 3 last night. It talks about John the Baptist preparing the way for Christ, and it talks about the baptism of Christ. John's water baptism will be superseded by the baptism associated with the Coming One. Those who repent and trust in him will receive the blessing of the Holy Spirit, while the unrepentant will receive the judgement of eternal fire, and even the repentant may undergo a purifying fire.
We need to repent and trust in Christ. We need to believe that He will take care of everything in our lives, He is always there, and will never leave us. The fact that God, in front of a bunch of people, including Pharisees and Sadducees, called Jesus His Son, with whom He is pleased, should be proof enough that He is the Son of God.
I love being able to share my thoughts about what I read with everyone. If there are ever any questions that you need some answers for, please by all means let me know, and I will try to the best of my abilities to answer them.
I may start posting about what I have been reading on my own, but I'm not quite sure yet. If you think I should please let me know. I have been reading Romans, which is an awesome and powerful book. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks again for all of you who are reading my blog.
