September 17 - Time of the Church

Psalm 28 - This is a beautiful psalm but more meaningful in the midst of suffering.

2 Chronicles 36:1-23 - In a passage like this I'm always focused on the destruction that happens to God's people because of their rebellion. I forget that God's temple is also desecrated and destroyed. God allows this to happen for repentance and deliverance. Sounds like something else I've heard before.

Colossians 4:1-18 - I tend to rush through final greetings of Paul's letters. It just seems like a formality to me, but in reality the people he greets and names are the reason for his mission. Paul writes to people, connecting the truth of the Gospel to their lives. When we disconnect his teachings from people, we can encounter all sorts of problems.
