VERSE:
And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the
LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and
of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.
-- Joel 2:13

THOUGHT:
One of the most amazing things about our God is that he is so
gracious and compassionate. This is true even when we've "blown it
big time." In fact, when we sin, he longs to forgive and cleanse,
not condemn and punish. His grace rushes to greet our genuine
heartbreak and heart-change with forgiveness, cleansing, and
redemption.
PRAYER:
Dear Father, when I sin, please help me see my sin as you do.
Help my heart break over my sin when I've rebelled against you. I
don't want to ever become callused or cold to your grace. I want to
always appreciate the great cost you paid to redeem, to forgive,
and to cleanse me with you grace. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

VELVET ELVIS: REPAINTING THE CHRISTIAN FAITH, by Rob Bell
In this provocative, hopeful book, Bell asks what the church might look
like if today's believers fully embraced "the way" of love, peace,
