Good morning ☀️
God knows the human condition and the nature of our struggle. He knows our hearts and understands when we fall short. We often get it all wrong. The difference between a saved person and one who is lost is the acceptance of the free gift of salvation God offers to those who avail themselves. There are no perfect followers of Christ. Therefore, we should not point our fingers at broken people who identify as Christians. God will judge us as individuals according to his standards. He has superior knowledge of us. Salvation not about group membership entrance standards. It is about his dealing with individuals.
“as it is written: None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one.” Romans 3: 10-12 (ESV).

I’m reading the love scriptures today. What is love and how do we know when it is flourishing in our lives?
Here’s a very special and appropriate scripture for today.
“You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely.
You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,”
even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together ...
