I love this insightful little devotional and how it talks about how the Jews could never get close to God because they were doing it on their own. Truth bomb right here.
We need to stop trying to do things on our own and start looking to the only one who can fix it and the world we live in.
God Bless.
Getting Right
But the people of Israel, who tried so hard to get right with God by keeping the law, never succeeded. (NLT) -Romans 9:31
Why is it that the Israelites never succeeded in getting right with God? It certainly isn't because they didn't try hard enough. It's because they couldn't earn their way. When you begin to think you can work your way in God's favor, watch out. We can't go to church, give enough money, or do enough good to be right in God's eyes. Only faith in God's grace is powerful enough to keep you right with Him.
