Sometimes our...What a marvelous suggestion, Sherry. Sometimes our quest to lose ourselves to God's ways can be so overwhelming we're at a loss where to begin. But I like your idea very much, starting with one trait and adding another as each as mastered!<br /><br />What will happen, I'm sure, with each is we'll be consistently humbled by how at odds what we assume is right contradicts the righteousness of Christ. Removal of self always leads to that conclusion, doesn't it?<br /><br />Blessings--and thank you again for the marvelous idea!<br />TimTimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01271248501086241494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2722447614945782871.post-55607166835119465452011-03-22T13:59:14.668-05:002011-03-22T13:59:14.668-05:00What a perfect distinction you make Tim...You are ...What a perfect distinction you make Tim...You are so correct, we cannot be righteous, we are made righteous in Jesus, but only through him. We are to seek it as you say so perfectly by emulating God's ways. You speak of his love, and justice, and faithfulness. Perhaps we can work on each for a month at a time as a special endeavor. Each day look for ways to increase our giving out of love would be a great way to start.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15503657383929273550noreply@blogger.com
