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.

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

Thank you for commenting on my blog. I will have look for that Burt's Bees product you recommended. =)

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 ...

Called, Chosen and Faithful

“...and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” (Revelation 17:14b) The saints are called, chosen and faithful. It makes me think of Revelation chapter 19:11, where Christ is described as Faithful and True. Amazing to think that we will also share this attribute of being faithful to Him! We are called to follow Him and serve Him. Chosen, His Bride, who will be dressed in fine linen, robes of righteousness. (Revelation 19:8) “And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.” Revelation 22:3-4 Such encouraging words to meditate on! One day the curse of sin will be broken, and we shall serve at the throne of God and the Lamb. We will see His beautiful face, the One whom we hid our faces from (Isaiah 53:3) We will see Him and...
