Is our piety enough?
Life is found in the gracious presence of Jesus in the Church caught up in the net of the Gospel.
Love one another enough to show them their sins, but only to show them their Savior.
The life of a Christian is a life of daily repentance. We are too weak. Christ must find us. He must carry us. He must do it all.
We each have a God-sided hole in our heart that only God can fill. And in love He fills us in the Holy Supper.
We are all beggars before God. Yet through forgiveness God gives us the riches of heaven.
God is so simple: He saves. The whole Trinity saves us, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
God has poured out His Holy Spirit on us through Holy Baptism.
The Spirit comforts us preaching Christ for the forgiveness of sins.
Thank God that we have a King.
