Where Art Thou?
September 1
Its not that God didnt know where Adam was; God is
omniscient. When we sin, God wants us to acknowledge our
sin, confess it and ask for forgiveness. But that is far from
what Adam and Eve did. Adam blamed Eve, and Eve blamed
Satan.
Howard Hendricks has a unique way of making you
squirm on the horns of a dilemma. One of those unsettling
dilemmas involves marriage partners who are frustrated with
the way their spouse turned out. One such guy approached Dr.
Hendricks with a list of gripes about his wife. Hendricks
consoled the guy with his Columbo-type tactics. He told the
man he was really surprised that a man of his intelligence
would marry a woman with so many blatant faults. The man
quickly defended his prenuptial decision by declaring, She
wasnt that way when I married her! Hendricks then
retorted, Then I guess you made her that way. The fault we
often foist upon our spouse can frequently be the result of our
own activities, or lack thereof. As one old cowboy put it, A
man who treats his wife like a thoroughbred will never end up
with an old nag.
Thought: If Adam and Eve lived today, they would
probably sue the snake.

Israel wanted a king and God gave them Saul. Again Israel
wanted a king and God gave them Hoshea, and again, that
didnt work out too well. Israel again wanted a king and got
Zedekiahnot too good. So God tells Israel, I will be thy
king. I am the only One Who can save you. How true!!
In 1981, a Minnesota radio station reported a story about a
stolen car in California. Police were staging an intense search
for the vehicle and the driver, even to the point of placing
announcements on local radio stations to contact the thief.
On the front seat of the stolen car sat a box of crackers that,
unknown to the thief, were laced with poison. The car owner
had intended to use the crackers as rat bait. Now the police
and the owner of the VW Bug were more interested in
apprehending the thief to save his life than to recover the car.
So often when we run from God, we feel it is to escape His
punishment. But what we are actually doing is eluding His
rescue.
That is what Israel was doing, running from God when He was
the only king Who could save.
What to do:
Look to the King of Kings for deliverance. No other
king can save.
