Bored

I'm sitting here at church. We have been staying here all day since it is such a long drive up and back. I DID get a nap, so thats good, but it's been pretty dull.



We had a great sermon today. Pastor Tripp has been going through Isaiah, and he went through the 5 or so verses before chapter 53. He really stressed the sacrifice that was required be Jesus and willingness to stand the beatings in order to accomplish redemption for those he loved. He also touched on another important aspect, one that Dad has been preaching about when he gets the opportunity. That is that since before creation God has been working out the plan of the crucifiction. Often we (or I have in the past) assume the God got so fed up with our sin that Jesus decided to die for us. However this can not be in light of the promise in Genesis to Adam and Abraham.
