Mark 7:23
Jesus paints a very interesting picture here. We often say that there is something wrong with this world. But, we must remember that we should be talking about people. We are the source of evil in this world. We are the ones that need to be fixed. Sin, evil, wickedness is in the heart of man.
So, man is not an innocent angel that is simply the victim of a cruel trick. We are ourselves evil and twisted. This is why salvation is so important. Only through Christ can we escape our fate. Only by him may our evil be purged.
Psalm 19:1-24:10
James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
Heavenly Father, how can we ever thank you enough for all that you have done? The life we have in Christ is eternal. The love you have given us is absolute. The joy we can have from you is wonderful. The security we have in Christ is so reassuring. Thank you! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
