Our Arrogance Before The Lord

Isaiah 2:22  Stop regarding man in whose nostrils is breath, for of what account is he?
Lest we think more of ourselves than we should. The day of the Lord is coming soon, put your faith in Him not man!
Isaiah 1:18-20 "Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."
We are like Judah and Jerusalem, rebellious and sinful. Let us learn from God's words to the people of Judah and Jerusalem. Don't you wonder about all the calamities that are happening? It is our punishment for our disobedience to God. He want us to wake up and see His light, Jesus. He will withdraw all of His blessings from us if we don't fall on our knees and ask or forgiveness and mercy. Do we even know His blessings He gives? Rain, sun, water, health, family, breath, food, shelter, next heart beat and I could go on and on.
Holy Father, we know who is our most treasured blessing, Your son Jesus Christ. He paid our debt and we are left with the knowledge of that debt which we can't reimburse. How could we be counted worthy of Your love? We ask for forgiveness and guidance to bring glory to Your name. Amen
