[00:00:00] A song by an 80s band reminds us of a universal truth in the Bible. Tune in for more.
[00:00:10] Hello, and welcome to MoMo634, the daily podcast chock-full of faith-filled inspiration and motivation. Please like, share, and subscribe. MoMo634, Motivational Moments, just for today.
[00:00:42] Ecclesiastes 1-9 tells us there is nothing new under the sun. Romans 15-4 tells us that what was written before is for our learning.
[00:00:53] In our midweek Bible study, we've been looking at the book of Genesis. We've just finished the section where Abram tells Pharaoh that Sarai is his wife.
[00:01:02] The first time. Yeah, spoiler alert, that means it happens more than once.
[00:01:10] Which, of course, led to discussions about people and their failings in light of having the complete Bible now.
[00:01:17] We tend to armchair quarterback, but as in the episodes The Cycle and Sin, we aren't much different.
[00:01:26] We're human, and we fail at times. Yet, knowing we'd mess up, God still sent his Son to redeem us.
[00:01:36] You'd never know how badly we botch things up by reading Hebrews 11, 7-39, the Hall of Faith.
[00:01:45] These are all extraordinary deeds by ordinary people, yet through the might of an Almighty God.
[00:01:54] For most of the people listed by name, you can probably name a narrative where they sinned as well.
[00:02:01] But the Bible doesn't leave their stories there, nor does he leave ours.
[00:02:08] We aren't perfect, but that is precisely why God sent his Son and why these accounts were left for us to learn from.
[00:02:20] Imperfect people serving a perfect God.
[00:02:23] That's his cast of characters then and now.
[00:02:28] The overarching theme is that our sins can be forgiven, and we can be useful to the kingdom.
[00:02:36] Our meme for today says,
[00:02:38] Be a vessel God can use.
[00:02:42] Who's your favorite regular person in the Bible, and why?
[00:02:47] Chime in below.
