Despite our human flaws, the Lord wants us to try and do the right thing, and He gives us the Holy Spirit to help us pursue righteousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pursuing wickedness doesn\u2019t take much effort. During the stress of my recent health crisis, I became snappy with Ron as I dealt with the trauma. Thankfully, he pointed out my issue with love, realizing the pain I felt caused my short temper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt\u2019s really hard to face the truth about your own behavior. As long as we\u2019re making excuses for something, we can\u2019t get free from it. Sometimes we need to face the truth with ourselves to grow.\u201d Joyce Meyer<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Accepting our imperfections helps us pursue righteousness. The more we become comfortable with our ugly parts, the more we can give them to Jesus. Submitting our lives to Christ turns ashes into beauty as we become more like Him. Pursue righteousness by owning faults, giving them to the Lord, and allowing Him to lead our actions.<\/p>\n\n\n Lord, forgive us our faults. Please surround us with people who will lovingly point out areas we need to own and grow. Help us get free from our past, moving forward in truth as we become more like Jesus. Let us pursue righteousness wholeheartedly. IJNIP. Amen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One minute read.
