Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.Piper says:
Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
Outside of God’s care there is only wrath. But there is a refuge from the wrath of God, namely, God. The safest place from the wrath of God—the only safe place—is God. Come to God. Take refuge in God. Hide in the shadow of his wings. This is where we live and serve with joyful trembling.
You can read the entire meditation HERE. You can also click a link on the top right corner of that page to have his weekly article e-mailed to you!
Also, pray for John Piper. He found out this week that he has prostate cancer. He wrote a very enlightening letter to his church that gives great insight on how to deal with personal tragedy. You can read the letter HERE.
