The -Washing of the Word

As I memorize and meditate on God's word, my sense of my sinfulness becomes my reality and the power of His grace becomes more real and powerful. My vision and dreams become more clear and vivid from His heart.

I see us all kneeling at the feet of Jesus and crying, "Worthy is the Lamb". Not my own religious effort but His grace and His grace alone.

Let's rid ourselves of the labels and self righteousness and cling hand in hand with our brothers and sisters around the cross of Christ where noone is better than the other.

Grace, grace, God's wondrous grace. The wonderful, matchless grace of God. No worthy men just sinners and failures glorying in His love. All clothed in His righteousness not our performance, but His perfect performance. We bring our filthy rags and he exchanges them with robes pure white. As I am reminded of this song:

The windows of heaven are open
His blessings are flowing tonight
There is joy, joy, joy in my heart
Since Jesus made everything right.

I gave Him my old outer garments
He gave me a robe of pure white
I feasting on manna from heaven
And that's why i am happy tonight
