A wee little man no more

At the heart of the entire Bible are a handful of life-saving truths to which God wants us to “hold on for dear life.” It is not the strength of our grip, however, that results in our rescue from sin and death. Rather, these are the truths by which God takes hold of us. This week we see how we are held onto by grace and let go from guilt. Guilt is an inescapable fact of life. No matter how much we might try to minimize, excuse, or explain our sin, feelings of guilt still weigh us down. God’s grace alone can alleviate this burden. His love is unconditional. He pardons every sin. When we are held onto by God’s grace, we are also let go from guilt.
