It Just Takes One

Verse of the week:

"Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people. For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous." ~ Romans 5:18-19


Song of the week:




One.

One man.

One place.

One choice.

One sin.

One.

One man.

One cross.

One sacrifice.

One gift.


Have you accepted this gift? Do you live as if you've accepted this gift? Just some thoughts. Praise God that the gift of His son doesn't compare to the weight of our sins and the filth that we have to shamefully take ownership of! Our righteousness comes from Christ's selfless act. That's it. There is no other reason besides God's mercy and great love for us that he chooses to make us holy through Christ.

We can't do it.

And honestly, I am so thankful that I don't have to do it on my own... because I know the one who can overcome.
