No Hiding From God

And no creature is hidden from God, but everything is naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must render an account. Therefore since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession. For we do not have a high priest incapable of sympathizing with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet without sin. Therefore let us confidently approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and find grace whenever we need help. Hebrews 4:13-16

"Meaning that there is no hiding! We will be held accountable for our sins before God and it is only because of Jesus' payment on our behalf (done because of God's love for us) that we are deemed righteous."1

Dear sisters, my encouragement to you today is to lavish in this truth. We, you and I, are deemed righteous because Jesus paid the price, ALL OF IT, on our behalf!! We bring nothing to the table!! No amount of good works or deeds! Apart from His perfect righteousness WE ALL STINK!!

Come! Shower with me in the abundance of His tender mercy, lovingkindness and His sufficient, amazing grace!! Let this truth motivate us to obey the living God and live according to His Word.
