S - Scripture
Ecclesiastes 3 v. 16 Moreover I saw under the sun that in the place of Justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness.
O - Observation
No one is perfect. All of us has fallen short of God's expectations, of God's laws. No one, regardless of how good they are, has ever been perfect. Isaiah 64 v. 6, "All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away." Really, this verse is all about John 3 v. 16. It points out how truly desperately we need Jesus. The fact that God sent his Son to Jesus to take away our sins so that we may have eternal life with him, is cause for celebration. We just need to stay focused on him, what he has done for us, and shift our focus away from us and our sin.
A - Application
Do I realize how desperately I need Jesus?
P - Prayer
Jesus, Thank you for dying and rising again so that I may live with you forever. Love Will
