Becoming Spiritually Bankrupt

Kia ora e te whānau,

I have been thinking about the phrase that John-Luke used on Sunday regarding our need to declare spiritual bankruptcy. Our efforts to manipulate God or other people by our list of spiritual accomplishments is pretty futile. It is quite freeing to live out of that place of total acceptance by a God who cannot love us more that he already does. He also will not love us less by our failures. What freedom! I pray that we all live out of that place this week.

Keep your eyes on Jesus,

Mark
