The Wedding Feast of Jesus, and the Foot Washing of the Betrothed

Richard Forbes
Christian, Daily Devotional, Washing Feet

Have we ever received an invitation to a grand and magnificent party? Did we send the RSVP indicating that we would be attending? Perhaps we are hesitating because we don’t feel that we have anything to wear; maybe the splendor of it makes us worry that we will be out of place, or perhaps we have convinced ourselves that we are too busy... or even above it! God has extended each of us an invitation to the grand wedding celebration of His Son, and His conquest over sin and death... how will we respond?

Family, and our Holy Purpose

Richard Forbes
Christian, Daily Devotional

As a believer we are set apart for God’s use, but what about our spouse, and our children? Does God have a plan for them, and does it involve us? Well, whenever something is made holy, God has a purpose and a plan for it. This is true of us as well, and especially includes our role as it pertains to an unbelieving spouse... and our children. The holiness with which we are painted, paints our families with the same color so that we will all be covered by it, and so it is that we bring the hope of our faith into our household. Salvation enters boldly with us through the front door.
