Spirit Rises, Or Man-made Plane Goes Down?
Psalm 143:2
Do not enter into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you.
Luke 7:48-50
Then he said to her, ‘Your sins are forgiven.’ But those who were at the table with him began to say among themselves, ‘Who is this who even forgives sins?’ And he said to the woman, ‘Your faith has saved you; go in peace.’

Words of Grace For Today
…
So many try to be good enough for God, but it is hopeless,
and it is a futile way to try to live well
and happy.
How wondrous it is
to be given faith
that makes one well
and does so by bringing one to realize one’s sins can be forgiven.
What are you going to do today:
Count your good works for all to see and hear of them, as if to prove you are good enough?
Or
Have the faith given to you active in your heart, mind, and soul
assuring you that your sins are forgiven
and you can get on with being alive
living out that forgiveness
for others in need?
A choice?
Or is it
God?
