Honor and humility

Matthew 1:1 NLT

This is a record of the ancestors of Jesus the Messiah, a descendant of David and of Abraham:

Jesus is a member of the covenant of Abraham, and he is of royal lineage.  But the list includes Tamar and Rahab (prostitutes), and Bathsheba (adulteress).  The Lord is gracious.  He invites us in to His family, regardless of what we have done.

Heavenly Father, thank you for your grace and kindness.  Lord Jesus, you can genuinely represent all of humanity, as the King of Kings, and the humble servant.  I love you, and I pray in the name of Jesus.
