March 28 Devotion

Read Matthew 5:13-20


You are amazing.  “Very good,” is what God said when He completed the creation of the world capping it off with mankind. You are the light, the salt.  People in God’s kingdom are the difference makers, giving glory (credit) to their Father in heaven.


Jesus was about to give interpretation of God’s revelation (the Law and prophets) and show how all things were fulfilled in Him.  He is not replacing, but further explaining and completing the word of God. The only way to enter the Kingdom is through the humility of receiving a merciful gift, not earning it.


We are difference makers not because we have achieved some goal, but because we become like children opening our arms to be picked up by our father. Nobody is good enough.  But when we ask for mercy we become amazing (God’s treasured possession). Remember who you are today.  A sinner saved by God’s grace, perfect children in your Heavenly Father’s eyes. We are trophies of His mercy.
