God who justifies

Thursday, October 29, 2009 Weekday

First Reading: Psalm: Gospel: Romans 8:31-39 Psalm 109:21-22, 26-27, 30-31 Luke 13:31-35

Romans 8:33  Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies;

I think we often forget this point.  We fear the people and circumstances of this world, forgetting that it is God who is the one who judges and justifies.  It is by God that we even have our breath.  There is nothing that anybody can do to us that God can’t undo or defend.  We must trust him.

Father, help me by your Holy Spirit to always trust you no matter how dark the road looks.

Amen
