The following is an exerpt from the daily meditations from “The Word Among Us” magazine for March 10th.
It’s not about rules; it’s about love! When Jesus seems to raise the standard on holiness, it’s not because he wants us to roll up our sleeves and try harder. It’s because he wants us to rely on him even more! He’s not counting how many rule we can uphold. He is looking to see how much we have surrendered to him. Why? Because he knows that the closer we are to him, the less we will want to sin.
Its Not About Rules, Its about LOVE!
