Today's reading Amos 5:1-27
Wow...this was a powerful chapter to me. So descriptive that it made me afraid for the people not worshiping our Lord.
Verse 6: "Come back to the Lord and live!..."
Verse 15: "Hate evil and love what is good..."
Certainly the negative impact of not following His command sounded scary to me!
For example, verse 19: "In that day you will be like a man who runs from a lion - only to meet a bear. Escaping from the bear, he leans his hand against a wall in his house - and he's bitten by a snake."
That was the message being given to the people of Israel who had turned to serve pagan gods. Not good, people!
I will make sure everyday to worship the One true God, our Father in Heaven.
Make no mistake. I 100% get that He is the only light out of the darkness, and the only pure joy.
