Read the Bible through the lens of Love

Morning: Psalm 50; Deuteronomy 9:23-10:5; Hebrews 4:1-10
One way of reading the Bible causes some people to reject it.  They read it expecting morality and judgment, but that is a dead-end path.  The Bible is not about a perverse God’s anger at our bad behaviour or unbelief.  Instead, read the Bible from the outset as a story of mercy, healing and love.  It’s easy to find the Love story in there ... When you find it, read again what you thought before was about morality or judgment ... but read it through the lens of Love.  It may appear altogether different.  Persevere.  Love stories are seldom simple.
