If the thief be found let him pay double Exodus 27:7

But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold Proverbs 6:31

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven. Matthew 18:22

Then I restored that which I took away. Psalms 69:4

Under the law, the minimum amount a thief was required to restore was double what he had stolen. Solomon, the king decided seven-fold would be appropriate. Our Lord Jesus, on the other hand, would not only forgive an offence seven times, but seventy times seven. Beyond even that, He restored that which He had not stolen away, the thing of greatest value, that is, eternal life.

-Tom Steere

Down to the depths of woe Christ came to set me free:

He bared His breast, received the blow, which justice aimed at me! -Anon.

I am glad you had a good at the Farmer's Market. Our little town has a lovely market, tiny, but lovely. I enjoy getting up early on Saturdays and getting there to pick out the best produce.

Have a wonderful week!

Walking with Christ

From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” John 6: 66-67 What does it mean to walk with Christ? I asked this question today. To walk means to move, to go from one physical place to another. Unless you are walking on a treadmill and then you literally go nowhere! To walk with someone else you have to keep up with their pace, whether they walk slower or faster than you. To walk with Christ we need to watch Him and match our stride with His. Not lagging behind, yet also not walking too far ahead of Him either. I know I tend to run ahead to the future in my thoughts and not always listen to what the Lord tells me in the His Word, the Bible. Who are some people who walked with God? Abraham is one who comes to mind. When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.” Genesis 17:1 Abraham walked so closely with God ...

Jesus Christ - and We

Jesus Christ- and We Christ has no hands but our hands , to do His work today; He has no feet but our feet to lead men in His way; He has no tongue but our tongues to tell men how He died, He has no help but our help to bring them to His side. We are the only Bible, the careless world will read; We are the sinners' gospel, we are the scoffers' creed; We are the Lord's last message, Written in deed and word- what if the line is crooked, what if the type is blurred? What if our hands are busy, with other work than His, What if our feet are walking, where sin's allurement is? What if our tongues are speaking, of things His lips would spurn, How can we hope to help Him, Unless from Him we learn? By Annie Johnson Flint (1862-1932) I was going through my old school folders and found this great poem. It is so true. We as Christians are to show the world how Christ would act and ta...
