I'm sitting here at Thai Cottage, waiting for my to-go order. A Jewish couple just walked in wearing crisp, fully white outfits which is customary on Rosh Hashana. As I was making that connection, I was thinking about the fact that because of Christ, that is how we look to God. Crisp, white, pure. Thank You Lord for that visual reminder!
They wear that in belief that God will forgive them, and He will--He has, they need only believe in the Messiah who came to earth as a man and conquered sin/evil through a different means than was expected (by death on a cross and resurrection to life 3 days later). Isn't that how He works? His ways are not our ways, nor His thoughts our thoughts.
