God lovingly gave his Word to inform us of his plan. God, the absolute author, wrote his love letter to humankind with many hands and many quills. He eloquently wrote the past and the future using metaphor, simile, personification, and antithesis. His book is history, geography, muniment, ancestry, biography, drama, romance, mystery, and instruction. In Connecting the Dots, a collection of devotionals weaves together Old Testament prophecy and New Testament fulfillment of prophecy concerning our Messiah and Redeemer. These devotionals highlight the important last-minute instructions from Jesus to the group of men he chose to take the gospel to the world. These are lessons taken from the Last Supper, the Garden of Gethsemane, and the crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension of Christ. Every detail of these lessons is pertinent to Christians who are committed to the Great Commission, and it challenges today's believers concerning our responsibilities as disciples. The Holy Spirit of God, who was present at the creation and the immaculate conception of Jesus, not only lives in the hearts of those redeemed but also lives in the words of God's book. It is He who quickens alive this Word in our hearts as we read and experience weeping turning to laughter, and conviction turning to joy.
