From the inside out

From the inside out

Jer. 13:23

Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard his spots? [can’t change or alter what’s natural FROM THE INSIDE OUT – attempting to do what’s humanly impossible]

Then also can you do good who are accustomed and taught to do evil. [not denying mans freedom to choose to do what is good; but neither is it humanly possible to change the nature of sin that man was born with FROM THE INSIDE OUT]
-----------------------

Pray the Word:
Lord, we may be able to make choices to change our lives at some degree to do good, but we, within the limits of human ability and knowledge,  cannot change our hearts FROM THE INSIDE OUT. We thank You for Your powerful and effective work of saving grace to us - for it was nothing short of miraculous that put us into a state and capacity of not only DOING right - but BEING right  .  .   FROM THE INSIDE OUT!

Thank you for reading my blog of thoughts, encouragement and instructions the Lord speaks about to me. It is simply my therapy to write down these things as I walk my journey out with Him. I would love to hear back from you. Each new day is a blessing! Dorothy
