God is not
angry with our struggle in following the law (or the conscience) - not at all;
He understands
too well that it is extremely difficult - almost impossible.
He knows that sin comes more naturally to us than holiness.
If it were easy, he would not have sent his dearest son to the cruel death on the cross.
He knows that sin comes more naturally to us than holiness.
If it were easy, he would not have sent his dearest son to the cruel death on the cross.
However, it
makes him sad that many of us think that there is no way out because we can
never be good enough to earn his love.
This is not
true.
He welcomes all
those who come to him with a humble and repentant heart because he no more see
us as we are - he sees us excused, atoned or purified by the sacrifice that
Jesus made on the cross.
When we accept
this gift of grace, Jesus will send his holy spirit who will work with us to
transform us into his likeness- over a period of time.
