The first Sunday of Advent is here. It is hard to believe another year has entered into the last month. We begin to mark the Sundays until Christmas. Anticipation, hope, and the wonder of the Christmas miracle are celebrated. It is all quite beautiful.
Because God is love, the human story continues to unfold. No one is perfect. Some have more sordid pasts than others. Every mention of Rahab is a reminder that our God redeems and restores.
Rahab's courage to hide Joshua and the other spies did not go unnoticed. She put her life on the line. She was not forgotten by those she protected. God changes labels and rewrites stories.
No mess is too big or too small. He is faithful.
Today, I am grateful for Rahab.
