The Sacrifice that Atones for Our Sins

"Jesus unconditionally fulfilled His vow to provide the way for us to come back to God. Further, Jesus unconditionally fulfilled any perceived obligation on our part necessary for us to gain acceptance before God."

I constantly forget this. I think I need to do something, be something, be someone that God will accept. I forget that I do not need to gain acceptance before God - Christ did that on my behalf. If I spent less time trying to earn God's love, I would spend a lot more time loving Him!

Lord,
Thank you for my freedom. I am clothed by your sinless excellence because of Christ's work on the cross. I rejoice in my full acceptance by the Father!
