No Condemnation

Romans 8:1-2 – There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.  For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.

If you are anything like me, you are berated with accusations and lies, saying that you are not worthy, that you are a failure, that God is not satisfied and that He is not content.  Hold these verses tight to the chest and remember that the law of the Spirit of life has set us free in Jesus.  In Christ, He looks at us and says that we are His beloved and that He is well pleased.

If you are struggling with something right now and find yourself continually failing in a certain area, place your mind on this truth and let this love blow you away as the contrast of what you deserve vs. what you receive is beyond our understanding.  The law crushes, but the Spirit of life allows even our worst moments to drive us further and further into the love of Christ.
