Colossians 1:22 New International Version (NIV)
22 But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s
physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without
blemish and free from accusation—
"Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven!" You've
probably seen this bumper sticker or something similar. In one sense this is
absolutely true. But, from God's point of view, Christians ARE perfect. That's
the incredible message Paul gives the Colossians. Because of Jesus' sacrifice,
God does not see our imperfections. He sees us through Christ's perfection.
Look at these concepts and marvel! Look at how God views you and give thanks!
Be humbled by God's grace to us in Jesus and rejoice! Holy, without blemish,
and free from accusation — there's nothing left to say but
"Hallelujah!"
Thought for today:
Do I focus on the negative aspects of my character and the character of others?
