"For the day of the Lord draws near on all the nations.  As you have done, it will be done to you.  Your dealings will return on your own head."  (Obadiah 15)

This passage makes me so thankful for Jesus; for the love with which He paid for my sins, taking them from my head to His own that I may be dealt with in grace and mercy rather than justice, which I so deserve.  My dealings were that thorny crown which He wore so willingly.  All the ugliness of my sin a mass of jagged barbs driven into His brow.

Thank you Father for sending Your Son.  Thank You Jesus for Your perfect obedience to the  Father's call.  Thank You Spirit for giving blessed encouragement from Obadiah today.
