When the circumstances of worship are less than ideal, is our worship less than? Can we still worship God fully when gathered together in a place like a front yard or streaming online?
We come to Jesus like children or we don’t come to him at all. Without pretense, without ideas of earning a place, without our respectable ‘adult’ reputations. We come like children who are delighted to receive his grace for what it is: a gift, all the way through.
What if your internal monologue about who you are matched the things that are true about you in the gospel of Jesus Christ? This can humble us when we’re prideful and encourage us when we’re awash in shame.
The love of Jesus is so disruptively wonderful that we can take off the resumes we hide behind & experience the freedom that can only come from his grace.
