Accessible...

 "At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 
The earth shook and the rocks split." -Matthew 27:51


Before the curtain tore...there was very little access to God. Only the high priest was allowed and even then, only once a year. 
This tearing certainly struck the heart of any intelligent Jew. 

The coolest part? The curtain was torn by God, Himself. 
Split all the way down from top to bottom.

What does that have to do with today? Alot!
God has busted out of a small, restricted room. 
He has come directly to us. 
I was reminded this weekend...that this includes Him coming to us in all of the yucky stuff....anxiety, fear and depression.

We can't do this without Him.

The tearing of the curtain was a literal symbol...
For them....then.
For you and me....today.



God, Thank You for for being accessible to us for anything and everything.

In His Dust,
DCC
