Thought for the Day – The Pursuit of Righteousness
October 27, 2014 by bjcorbin
| Our pursuit of righteousness cannot be rooted in the idea of gaining God’s approval, or even in doing what many would refer to as “His work”. Instead, it must grow out of a sincere desire to see His character revealed in us. The former will simply push us toward pious religious acts, while the latter will drive us into submission to God’s Spirit. |

Good word brother! It seems we forget the denial of self is the real answer to the glory of God and His righteousness. Hope I see you guys soon!
