Reflections: October 12
12/12/10
Verse: Is it not clear to you that to go back to that old rule-keeping, peer-pleasing religion would be an abandonment of everything personal and free in my relationship with God? I refuse to do that, to repudiate God’s grace. If a living relationship with God could come by rule-keeping, then Christ died unnecessarily. Galatians 2:21 (MSG)
Discovery: Living for Christ is not all about a bunch of rules that need to be kept. It is all about a living relationship with God through His grace to please nobody except Him.
Application: Do I try to keep a set of rules to please God? Do I have a personal relationship with Jesus? How is my relationship with Him today?
