I don't know about you, but I get frustrated from time to time about having all of the different "Passwords" that I need to have so that "I" can even get access to my own computer files and sites that I have saved under my Favorites site. I will "Fess Up" and say that part of the problem is me simply trying to remember what Password I need to use for each site. And then of course there are times when I get so frustrated trying to "Sign In" that I change my Password and then I get this message that there is a 24 hour "Waiting Period" before I can access my files because I changed my Password and that all of this is for my own protection! Oh joy! Don't these people know that I almost missed my Fantasy Football draft over a silly password issue!
Anyway, amidst my frustration I got to thinking about what a wonderful Father we have in Heaven in that He requires NO password from us to speak to Him whenever we want! You see when Jesus died on the cross scripture tells us in Matthew 27:51 that the curtain in the Temple separating the the Holy of Holies, the place where the Ark of the Covenant was held, that this curtain was torn in two from top to bottom giving everyone direct access to our Father in Heaven 24/7! Thanks be to our Lord who makes it so easy to have access to Him, to pray to Him and to know that He is listening and ready to respond to you and I. So the next time you have an issue with a Password, remember how much God Loves you and gives you access to Him, to listen to you, to bless you and build you up in your faith.
Have a Joy Filled Week! Pastor Rick Koch Dutchtown Church
