Pensamento:
"Não consegui!" Pensando bem, todos erramos o alvo! Não chegamos à altura. Não somos divinos. Talvez sejamos pessoa decentes, mas decência não nos salva. Somente os divinos, os verdadeiramente justificados, conseguem chegar além da cova para a glória. Graças a Deus, a graça é dada sem restrições e o preço por nosso pecado foi pago por Jesus. Mesmo que eu "não consigo", Jesus me renova!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
"I blew it!"
Come to think of it, we've all blown it! We don't measure up. We're not divine. We are not righteous on our own. We all fall short. We might be decent by the world's standards, but decent won't save us in the presence of a holy, infallible, and perfect God. Only the truly righteous make it past the grave and into glory. Thank God! Grace is freely given, and the price for our sin was paid by Jesus. While I "blew it," Jesus renewed it from sin, death, hell, and the evil one! While I "blew it" — and admit, you blew it, too — Jesus renewed our lives for life with him now, and in glory forever (Colossians 3:1-4). Jesus even presents us to the Father as "holy in his sight, without blemish, and free from accusation" (Colossians 1:22).
Oração:
Bondoso e Amado Pai, obrigado por ser tão generoso com a sua graça. Que eu possa ser tão cheio de paixão por sua justifidação com o Senhor foi quando me redimiu do meu pecado. Através de Jesus eu peço isso. Amém. || http://iluminalma.com/img/il_romanos3_25.html
My Prayer...
Kind and Loving Father, thank you for being so generous with your mercy, grace, forgiveness, and cleansing. May I be as passionate for your righteousness as you were in redeeming me from my sin. Based on Jesus' authority and love, I ask for the Holy Spirit to help me with this, as I seek to please you and become more JESUShaped. Amen.
