"Because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin." -Romans 3:20 (NASB)
One evening as I sat on the couch trying to keep my eyes open, I realized that I needed to get back in a routine of exercising. I knew I felt better when I was active, but there are always disruptions to the routine that make it difficult to get on track and stay on track. Realizing something is only the first step. We have to follow it up with action!
When we look at our lives, there are many things that may cause us to realize something and push us to action. The Bible gives us God's Law. We cannot be saved by the Law, but it can help us realize that we have fallen short of God's glory. Once we realize that we are sinners, we need to take the next steps. The next steps include asking God for forgiveness, believing in the sacrifice of His Son for our forgiveness, and then striving to live each and every moment for God. We need to and can move from realizing our shortfall to taking action! We are not and will not be perfect, but we can take the next steps to join God's family and live through, with, and for Him.
God's Law shows us that we need redemption. Will you take the next steps to Salvation?
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for giving me Your Law and the Bible that show me how much I need You and how to receive Your gift of Salvation. Help me to always life with and for You so that others can see Your glory. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
