RBT - discover something beautiful about yourself

19 
When we read the bible together we share how God's living word has spoken to us and corrected and rebuked us. And there's usually like an element of groan- because it is horrible to discover yourself- and the bible can do that to you! 
And I had a right nasty rebuke from the minor profits. They'll do that, the profits. But I'm a brave soldier in Christ. And I take it because I know it's true, I know it's for the good of me and more importantly my children.

If you read Nahum chapter 3 you might see it too.



But you know what? Simultaneously someone shared a verse with me which made me see my good, my beauty, my specialness in Christ. 
Another truth- just as true! 

And that is the power of sharing the bible!


(The verse by the way, is 'you are not your own.')
