18 For [God does not overlook sin and] the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who in their wickedness suppress and stifle the truth, 19 because that which is known about God is evident within them [in their inner consciousness], for God made it evident to them. 20 For ever since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through His workmanship [all His creation, the wonderful things that He has made], so that they [who fail to believe and trust in Him] are without excuse and without defense. Romans 1:18-20 amp
Reading that in the amplified version makes me sick to my stomach. The conviction of sin is real. The closer I get to Christ the more I start to see things I don’t like about myself. Things that need to change. I want the fear of God and the holiness of God to be more important to me than anything else in my life! I am 100% without an excuse but yet I still come up with an excuse every single time I need one for my sin. Thank you God for grace that is unexplainable!
Application:
Remember the holiness of God, the greatness of God. Do not forget what He has done. What He gave for me is unmeasurable. Grace and mercy that doesn’t make sense. Honor Him with my actions and my thoughts. Always telling myself “I’M WITHOUT EXCUSE”. Be better because He deserves better! Thank you Jesus for loving me today!
In His name!
