Last night as I was doing my Bible study I started thinking about all of the things that get in between us and Jesus. I guess mostly its sin. Don’t you just feel terrible praying when you have sin to confess? I know I do. Honestly, that’s when He wants us the most, when we need to repent. For the Jews it was the law. But really, what is our excuse when we have no laws to bind us?
In reference to Mark 1: 35-39 the following is a quote from “Jesus – 90 Days with the One and Only” by Beth Moore.
Day 21 Jesus in the Morning – Jesus in the Evening
Christ primarily had been ministering in various synagogues to Jews. It was unlawful for them to carry the sick on the Sabbath. But God-fearing people counted the moments until the sun set over the Sea of Galilee, marking the close of day. So as darkness fell, they bundled their sick and brought them to the Light. It was as if they watched the clock of the law tick until it finally struck grace.
My friends, thanks to our Savior our clock is forever stuck on grace. Isn’t it time to go to the One who treasures you more than anyone else is even capable of?
