When Jesus heard this, he said to them, “It is the sick people who need a doctor, not those who are healthy. I did not come to invite good people. I came to invite sinners.” ~ Mark 2:17b (ERV)
Lord, it sounds like I'm the kind of person you're looking for. I fit right in with the rest. "We have all done wrong!" But you sent your Son into the world to heal us. Why would you do such a kind and gracious thing? We're always looking for ways to shame the people who do wrong things. But you -- you actually invite sinners who can't possibly afford your doctoring. And you heal us for free. Lord, I want to become just like you, Is that a possibility? I hope so. Amen.
