Feel my pain and see my trouble.
Forgive all my sins.
ROMANS 7:24-25 (CEB)
I’m a miserable human being. Who will deliver me from this dead corpse? Thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord!
THE ESSENCE
Christ delivers us from the grasp of sin.
DAILY FODDER
Through the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus, we're not just given forgiveness of our sin, but we are delivered from the grip it has on us. That is a holistic approach to dealing with sin.
PRAYER
God, your gracious forgiveness is my greatest treasure. Your gospel assures me of your steadfast love regardless of my wretched condition. This is life to me. Forgive me when I get caught up in petty dramas that I use to make myself look good. Help me to practice forgiving others daily. This is what matters, now and forever. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
