Worthy?
Servant
replied saying, “I’m not worthy. I’m not worthy of such a
gift.” “The
Timeless-One has chosen you. None of us is worthy. Not one. Take the
gift; the fire is yours,” said Caleb “I accept, I accept,”
cried Servant.
Then
a light came down from heaven and covered Servant, and out of the
light came the voice of the Timeless-One thundering, “Now, Servant
you are mine. Breathe the fire and live.”
Servant
looked up with a glow on his face and eyes full of light.
The
above is from the story, “The
Fire” from The
Caleb Chronicles.
How many times have we said this
very thing, or heard someone else say it? Well, it's true. None of us
are worthy of forgiveness, salvation, redemption. That's where God's
grace comes in. That's where God's Gift, His only begotten Son, Jesus
steps in. The thing is, we have to accept God's Gift. We have to
reach out and take it, accept it, and receive His Gift as our very
own, knowing we are not worthy it.
Rom
3:23, 24
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
being
justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in
Christ Jesus,
We
have all sinned, and do sin. We have all fallen short of God's glory,
God's
kabod',
His brightness and splendor.
But, we are justified, acquitted,
found innocent, proved guiltless, cleared of all wrong doing, freely
by His grace, His Favor, His goodness, and great kindness, through
the redemption, through the ransom, through the purchasing back of
the lost ones, us the sinners that is in Christ Jesus. Amen, Selah
Worthy?
No. Acquitted? Yes.
