—2 Chronicles 29:3-11
by: Trisha Gerstel.
There are times in our lives when we distance ourselves from the Lord, either with purpose or unintentionally through a lackadaisical approach to our spiritual disciplines. How wonderful it is to know that, just as God allowed Hezekiah to restore His temple after the Israelites had done evil in His sight, He allows us to turn back to Him during those times, ask His forgiveness, and once again pursue a deeper relationship with Him. This is a truth for which God is to be praised, and it is something we are called to practice in our own lives (Colossians 3:13) so that we may glorify Him and bring Him honor.
