40 Days of Surrender - Day 6

Saturday, October 15, 2011 - "The Greatness of My Sin and the Surpassing Greatness of His Grace"

This was a quote from DeMoss' "Brokenness" book.  And this is what a meditated on today.  It's not a new thought.  And it's even the idea that was a catalyst for this Fast.  I need to understand the depth of my sin, the ugliness of me justifying my sinful thoughts and attitudes, how it offends God Almighty and is the cause of the chasm between us.  I cannot be fully healed in my broken relationship with God until my heart is broken of its prideful sin.

O LORD, please, Let me Learn the Greatness of My Sin.


And THEN the Surpassing Greatness of Your Grace.

  1. Great quote - one that is sure to encourage in times where we feel our sin makes the chasm too wide between us and God. Maybe I'll have to give this author a second chance!
