Prepare the Way of the Lord (overturning tables in our own temples)

I’ve been thinking a lot about Jesus overturning the tables in the temple.

Such a departure from our modern images of the Jesus who “gets us.” We much prefer His compassion on the woman caught in adultery or His miracles with fish and bread (or maybe that’s just me).

Quotes by Lori Stanley Roeleveld (?)

“Nothing is quite as beautiful as seeing someone do exactly what they were designed to do, to watch someone who has found that thing, that passion, that singular calling and expresses it with conviction.”

“Hope doesn’t float. Hope is an anchor forged from the nails that pierced Him and the iron-will that held Him to the cross, made Him stay the course, and drove Him to live out His extreme devotion to His Father’s will. His back became the anvil on which God forged our redemption. Jesus is our only hope.”

Lori’s Quotes

“The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.”
