culture shock...

After listening to Al Mohler's sermon delivered in 2006 at a Together for the Gospel conference...I am in awe of Christ!

Left to ourselves... as individuals, families and even as a nation...we have the tendency to pray imprecatory psalms such as we find in Ps. 69:22-28...when we deal with injustices done to us or those we love...

On the same page in the daily Bible reading...I find Christ washing the disciples' feet...even those of Judas who eventually betrayed Him!

This kind of love is an anomaly in any culture...American or otherwise!

"The humble shall see...and you who seek God, your hearts shall live. For the Lord hears...and does not despise...for God will save...and build..." (Ps. 69: 32-35)

"O God, who is like You?...You shall revive...and comfort...To You I will sing...O Holy One of Israel...My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long." (Ps. 71:17-24)

Keeping in mind eternal souls...no matter their culture...

"And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." (John 17:3)
