A week!

So its been a week between posting and i blame PMS its horrible!!!

Anyhoo i am enjoying early morning boot camp and this morning was no exception :)

So i am feeling awake and excited about 2 Thessalonians!!

Chapter 2 talks about the coming day of the Lord and reassures the thessalonians that it hasnt happened yet! Because there is a man of lawlessness still at work. and we really do see it in the world dont we? Plenty of lawlessness and sin, waiting for Jesus to be revealed and show it up for what it is and finally overthrow all sin and opposition to him. Why do people follow the way of lawlessness? they are sucked in by the false works of satan and vs 10 'they perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.' and so they believe the lies. its a mirror to our world isnt it??

BUT

there is good news for those in Christ Jesus:
13 But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God chose you to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth. 14 He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the teachings[c] we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

16 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, 17 encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.

that is my prayer for today!!
