Words of Life: May-August 2002

by Barbara Sampson (Editor)

Synopsis

What does it mean to be a person after God's own heart? Is this the honour of the privileged few who are born with holiness in their hormones? Scripture tells us otherwise. David was described as "a man after God's own heart" but was both favoured and flawed, blessed and broken, holy and human. The disciples who gathered in the upper room after Jesus' ascension were transformed, by the Holy Spirit, from fearful followers into bold men and women who spoke with confidence of God's saving grace. The apostle Peter wrote to persecuted believers to tell them that they were a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation. As you journey with David, Peter and a host of others through this text, may you discover what it is to be a person after God's own heart. The Salvation Army's writer, Major Barbara Sampson, aims to bring a fresh approach to daily Bible readings, which are accompanied by thoughtful and informative notes, suitable for all denominations.
