"We have right thoughts about God when we think He knows us better than we know ourselves and can see sin in us when and where we see none in ourselves. When we think He knows our innermost thoughts and when our hearts are always open to His eyes. And when we think that all our righteousness stinks in his nostrils and that therefore He cannot bear to see us stand before Him with any confidence even in our best performances . . . It is His personal obedience to the law in doing and suffering for us that which would be required of us. This is the righteousness that true faith accepts and under which the soul is covered and is presented as spotless before God and acquitted of condemnation.
"The Pilgrim's Progress"
There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Today is Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week for Believers.
I hope this week is meaningful for you this year.
