Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Romans 4:22-24
How many times have we seen someone on the street panhandling and have smug thoughts that at least our vices aren't as bad? I hate to admit this, but I know I have. Fortunately for us, Jesus reminds us that we all fall short of His glory, because we're all sinners, but our belief in Christ's death and resurrection for ALL of us sinners, including those panhandling, justifies us by His grace!
What Do Our Actions Say When Jesus Calls Us? Sometimes, the lack of action conveys more than we imagine, but there's still time to make changes! Yeah, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for Thee; the Desire of our soul is to Thy name, and to the remembrance of Thee. Isaiah 26:8
