Prior to our faith in the pardoning grace of the cross, the law ultimately could only be a condemnation code specifying the reasons for our death penalty. Now that Christ has paid that penalty, however, the Law is a map of blessing showing how those God has made right with Himself can further experience His love, bring honor to the One they love, and share His love with others. Understanding that the Law no longer condemns but guides us to spiritual safety, worship and fellowship makes its standards a delight, and indicates why antinomianism shackles God’s people to unhappiness. Denying people access to God’s path of spiritual safety is a contradiction of grace.

A request for prayer

Friends,

I know you are so good to pray for the needs of others.  I need your prayers.  The situation between my husband and I has not changed.  However, a praise is that I feel I am getting back on track with my relationship with the Lord.  Dh had been gone since Thursday and I have used this time to think, to pray, to read, and to reach out to a Christian counselor.  Dh is taking a vacation day tomorrow to stay home and talk with me.  The girls are going to day camp at church.  I do not know what the outcome of this day will be, but I do know now that whatever takes place, God will give me the strength to get thru it.  I do not understand why this is happening, but I do trust that God knows best.  Will you please pray for me tomorrow?  That the comfort and courage from the Lord will be with me.  I know now that God will not change someone who does not truly want to change.  I am praying that he either truly wants to change or that God will do what is best for my daughters and I, whatever that may mean.

Thank you for listening and for praying,

 

~Michele
