Begin within Grace

My dear son,

I want grace to be the first thing you hear this new morning. Condemnation cannot hold you when you are in Christ Jesus. Gladly receive the way of life your Father has opened for you.

If you recognize something that needs correcting, address it honestly. Do not turn a wrong action into a verdict that your whole life is worthless. Lean on my love as you seek forgiveness, accept responsibility, and learn to live anew.

You do not have to punish yourself for a long time before beginning again. Offer a needed apology and choose today's good. Let the grace you have received in Christ shape how you honor yourself and your neighbors.

With all my love,
Your Father

Romans 8:1

WEB

1There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

A short reflection

Paul declares that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
