Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Psalm 51:10 NIV
David, who had misused all his authority and power, become an adulterer and a murderer...if after all that he can come back to God...acknowledge & confess his sin & wrongdoing...then I can too.
No matter what our weakness, O
If God's grace is sufficient for David, if God's arms are open for him, then his grace is more than sufficient for us...his loving arms are always open for us to return to his embrace, no matter who we are, no matter what we've done, no matter what may have been done too us...there is nothing too big or too small, nothing too ugly or hurtful that Jesus love cannot wash away...

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
