Ponder the achievement of God.
He doesn't condone our sin, nor does He
compromise His standard.
He doesn't ignore our rebellion, nor does He
relax his demands.
Rather than dismiss our sin, He assumes our sin
and, incredibly, sentences Himsellf.
God's holiness is honored. Our sin is punished...
and we are redeemed.
God does what we cannot do so we can be what we
dare not dream: perfect before God.
Do you enjoy God more than anything? God wants us to enjoy Him, more than just obey Him. If you can't walk with God because of your circumstances - if you pray about it, your circumstances will most likely get harder - until you realize that God is enough.
