Thursday Thoughts

Clint and I try to read a devotional every morning together, we fail half the time! But that doesnt stop us from at least trying when we can. Here is what we are reading now: Voices from the Past- it's a devotional reading written by different puritans. Today's one was by John Owen. Here is a little portion of it:

" His blood ( meaning Christ) has a double consideration: not only atonement and reconciliation, but also purging and sanctification. He offered himself not just to make atonement, but also to sanctify us by the sprinkling of his blood. It is by faith we receive the purifying virtue and influences of the blood of Christ..."

Thankful for the blood of Christ! May we never take it for granted.
