I don't get this very often, but a couple days ago, I felt it; 100% unworthy of approaching God in prayer.
By what can I, one who is so self centered, one who trusts in himself and yet fails so often, one who forgets to bring his worries to God and one who has done so much against Him, by what means can I come before the One, the holy, the righteous, the eternal, sovereign, unchanging, creator of the Universe?
By the blood of Christ.
There is no other way. There is nothing I could do to atone. There is nothing I could do to redeem. There is nothing I could do to fix my own brokenness. The only thing I can do is give everything back to Him and trust in Him as the solid rock on which to build my life into the life He wants for me.
Only in Him.
So, it's awesome that even in those places we can come before Him, as if we were holy and blameless because Christ has made us so if we trust in Him.
Word.
Amen.
