What Did You Do?!

Scotty Smith, real life friend and colleague in another denomination, says it so well —

Nothing you did made God delight in you more.

Nothing you did diminished his love for you.

This doesn’t mean God is indifferent.

Rather, he is tenaciously consistent, steadfast in his love, and abounding in grace.

He made Jesus your righteousness, not your 2nd chance.

— So what did you do?

Or not do?

Either way, Christ Jesus was, is, and shall be “your righteousness, not your 2nd chance.” 

Sit with that a bit.

It’s all about Christ Jesus.

Soak in that grace.

Let it permeate your heart, your mind, and your life.

And join me in being thankful.
