Titus 3:5 "...he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.."
Paul shares a few common themes throughout his writings. The concept that we are saved and made right before God because of the grace and mercy of Jesus is one of them. Again and again Paul beats this drum. Yet I continually try to win God's approval and have my goods outweigh my bads. Today I need to rest in the fact that Jesus has done it all. As he said, it is finished.
