A Gracious Thing

1 Peter 2:20 For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God.
Did you ever stop to consider that this is what Christ did on the cross for me and you? He was totally innocent and totally sinless! Where as we are totally guilty and sin abounds in us. His death was a very gracious thing, presented to us in all our unworthiness, but not because we are deserving but because He was being obedient to His Father!
Lord, I fall before you in repentance. You are worthy of all our praise! Amen
Any thanks we give to the Lord just seems hollow! Let us show our love and adoration by loving the unlovable. For while we were still enemies of God, He sent us Jesus! Pray for the enemies of God and show them who Christ is!
Romans 5:8 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us
