Romans 9:17-33
30 What does all this mean? Even though the Gentiles were not trying to follow God's standards, they were made right with God. And it was by faith that this took place. 31 But the people of Israel, who tried so hard to get right with God by keeping the law, never succeeded. 32 Why not? Because they were trying to get right with God by keeping the law instead of by trusting in him. They stumbled over the great rock in their path.
Sadly, even the religion of Christianity can get in the way of people simply trusting God.
Heavenly Father, thank you for your grace. Lord, please help me not be religious. I want to genuinely trust you and walk with you in faith. I love you, Lord, and I pray in the name of Jesus Christ.
