All in this together

Wednesday, June 1st: For all have sinned; all fall short of God's glorious standard. Yet now God in his gracious kindness declares us not guilty. He has done this through Christ Jesus, who has freed us by taking away our sins. God knows we are going the wrong way on the staircase, God loves us anyway, tries to get us to turn around and help one another on the way and then God offers us salvation anyway. Some never get it. They still put all their effort on going up that down staircase. They do so by pointing out how bad others are; how people allowing abortion as one of the choices a woman may have are murders, how allowing two same sex individuals who love each other the option of a committed life will destroy every heterosexual marriage, things like that. God loves and forgives them also.
