Such a great privilege.
The law of Christ, not written on a stoned storied Ten Commandments.
The Word of God written on the fleshy tables of our hearts.
And that changes everything.
We cannot be the same person we were today, yesterday.
Our depravity runs deep.
We are all curved in on ourselves.
Luther and Augustine both called it the inward curve.
And such confidence toward God.
Not that we are sufficient of ourselves.
But
Our sufficiency is from God. 2 Cor 3:5

COME BOLDLY: Timeless Prayers
Dear Father, Sufficiency. We aren't sufficient to do anything on our own. Come this day, Lord Jesus. Fill these broken lives with Yourself. That we may be truly free.
PHOTO: SO. What does it mean to be free. I mean truly free! Standing by a river. Wondering why there are so few people truly free. What will it take this day?
