My page for week 1 of the His Holy Name Challenge. Our word this week was holy. I had read Patter's devotional but hadn't really delved into studying the Bible yet. In the meantime, I saw a t-shirt transfer on clearance at Hobby Lobby depicting the Nativity Scene. O Holy Night! When God came to earth. So I used that for the main focal part of my page. Of course had to include Luke 1:35
There were several verses that spoke to me as well regarding God's Holiness. One that stood out was Hebrews 10:10; that talks about us being made holy through Jesus' sacrifice. As I was about to write this verse on my page, it struck me - Jesus was born for the sole purpose of coming to save me! and you! That I might walk closer to God and become the holy being that he originally created man to be.
I thought this was a great word for this week; God is Holy, He wants me to be holy, I want to be holy. Part of my desire and commitment to this challenge is to become more holy, to become the woman he intended me to be.
