Day 103..."A Choice of Blessing or Curse...Bless the Lord...Forgiveness"

Deuteronomy chapter 11 states it about as clear as you can. Follow God and your life will be blessed. Disobey God and your life will be cursed. Would this not be similar to Jesus' teaching on "by their fruits you will know them." The theme of "Bless the Lord" is clearly stated in the Psalm. One of my favorite passages for Holy Communion is found in Psalm 103..."as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us." East and west never meet in a linear line. God forgives and forgets. The grace of God is gives us a new heart and new start. Jesus heals a Centurian's servant and later a widow's son. Jesus is also acknowledged as "the One" by John the Baptist's followers.
