Righteousness

"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness...."

Righteousness. That's it. That's what we are thirsty for. We're thirsty for a clean conscience. We crave a clean slate. We yearn for a fresh start. We pray for a hand that will enter the dark cavern of our world and do for us the one thing we can't do for ourselves--make us right again.

I'm overwhelmed at the thought that because of what Christ did for me roughly 2000 years ago I now have Right standing before a Holy God.

Wow. Thank you Jesus for thinking of me when you died upon that Roman Tree.
