Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
La gracia no nos es para justificar a nuestros pecados sino acerca una profunda gratitud por el perdon y un compromiso que cambia a la vida y que nos ayuda a decir "no" a todo lo que es maligno y corupto aunque prevalezca en nuestra cultura.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Grace is not about excuses for our sins, but about a deep-seated thanksgiving for pardon and a life-changing commitment to say, "No!" to all that is evil, corrupt, and wicked, no matter how alluring or how pervasive those temptations and desires may be, and no matter how prevalent they are in our culture. As Paul taught the Ephesians, we have received mercy and grace so we could be saved FROM sin, death, and hell (Ephesians 2:6-8), and so we can be saved FOR doing what is good (Ephesians 2:10).
Mi oración
Señor, Dios de Jesús, mi Abba Padre, te alabo por tu gracia costosa y amor que me ha sido demonstrado en Jesús. Ahora, forme en mi un compromiso a decir "no" a todos los pecados que causaron a mi Salvador dolor y humillación. Por tu Espíritu, cree en mi una vida justa con dominio propio que refleje a tu justicia. En el nombre de Jesús, oro, Amén.
My Prayer...
Lord, God of Jesus, my Abba Father, I praise you for your costly grace and love demonstrated to me in Jesus. Now, please galvanize my commitment to say "No!" to all those sins that required my Savior's pain and humiliation to cleanse me and empower me to be your child. Through your Spirit, form in me a righteous lifestyle that is self-controlled and that reflects your righteous character, gracious compassion, and faithful love and justice. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
