My prayer for you this week
“Creator God, thank-you for making the unchanging nature of Your purpose very clear to us by confirming it with an oath. You did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for You to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek. Thank-you, in Jesus name, Amen.” Hebrews 6:17-20

According to the Old Testament a Hebrew servant (or slave) was to be freed after six years. However they could choose to stay after the six years if they so desired. If they chose to do this they had an ear pierced with an awl as a sign to the rest of the world that they had become a permanent servant, or as stated in the word, a bond-servant for life.
I met with a man the other day who was bemoaning the fact that earlier in life he had missed the opportunity to be the family leader he had intended to be. Neglecting his responsibilities he lead a life of selfish indulgence. Now later in life, he is missing the joy of being involved with family… including his grandchildren. Reflecting back over the past he acknowledges that his walking away from his early love of the Lord and doing his own thing has invoked irrevocable consequences. He is back on track with his walk with the Lord. I can only pray that the Lord would bring healing into his family struggles.
