Ensimmäinen Mooseksen kirja 2:15-17

We’ve all had questions about God—some have been answered and some haven’t. The truth we learn from the Bible will help us find answers to many of our questions. For the answers we just don’t get or the questions that are left unanswered, let’s let them drive us to pursue God more.

As New York pastor Rich Villodas defines it, a deeply formed life is a life marked by integration, intersection, intertwining, and interweaving, holding together multiple layers of spiritual formation. This kind of life calls us to be people who cultivate lives with God in prayer, move toward reconciliation, work for justice, have healthy inner lives, and see our bodies and sexuality as gifts to steward.

Are you experiencing a wilderness season, finding no water or oasis for your soul? What if this season held the greatest hope of all: to know God’s Presence intimately, authentically, and passionately? This devotional encourages you that this time is not wasted, though some days you feel as if you are going nowhere. Because no matter what terrain you tread, God is journeying with you as Comforter, Life-giver, & Friend.

Raamatun ensimmäiset luvut kertovat meille tärkeitä asioita siitä, millainen Jumala on ja mitä hän ihmisestä ajattelee. Jumala on luonut meidät ja hänen pelastussuunnitelmansa alkoi siitä hetkestä, kun ihminen lankesi syntiin. Tuo suunnitelma on edelleen voimassa, ja siihen mekin voimme liittyä. Tämä viiden päivän lukuohjelma sisältää hartaudet ja keskustelukysymyksiä esim. raamattupiiriä varten.
