—Romans 3:15-20
by: Angie Osborn.
Verse 20 caught my eye as I read this passage. We are not justified by keeping the law. Sometimes, we get so caught up in doing things the right way that we lose the joy of walking with God. For example, there are times when we rob Sabbath of its joy by focusing on our lists of cannot and mustn’t. God didn’t give us the law as a ladder to spiritual success. Instead, God’s law makes us aware of the times we sin. Don’t get bound up in the law—rejoice in the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ.
