Revelation 5

For the record, I'm still singing "I Can Only Imagine", but this morning the words have become intertwined with "Better is One Day" ... Go figure.

Better is one day in Your courts, better is one day in Your house. Better is one day in Your courts than thousands elsewhere.

Reading Revelation is so much different than any of the reading I've ever done before. In other books, it is so easy to separate verses out and comment on them. Witht his book, I become so overwhelmed by the magnitude of what I'm reading, that to tear it apart into pieces is more than I can bare. Maybe I'll do better the next time I read it ...

vs 6 ... "So I looked, and there, surrounded by Throne, Animals, and Elders, was a Lamb, slaughtered by standing tall."

My Messiah! You came for us, as gentle as a lame and you were sacrificed so that we could be saved from our sin!

YOU SAVED US!! Your blood was shed so that we may have freedom in You! That is why we bow at Your feet in adoration!
