Be

It's Tuesday morning, and I'm dealing with me. We all do it -- we fall short, either in attitude, thought or action. And we go to our Lord and receive forgiveness. And that's an awesome thing. Yet we are beset by sin, and by ourselves -- our propensity to sin, and things we are trying to overcome.

The good thing is that our God calls us to be. Just be. Be in relation to Him. Be as close to Him as we can. And to do our best. He is a good God, and He walked here -- He knows how we feel. That helps. But He calls us to be -- so, even when we blow it (and it will happen) -- we can rest in Him, receive His forgiveness, and get up and go on again. Sometimes it takes us a while to enjoy that forgiveness. And that's OK, too.

But in Him, we can rest -- just be -- in Him.
