Lord, we have failed You over and over again. It never seems to stop –
failure, failure, failure ..! This is the story of our life – from
beginning to end. Can we escape from this – failure, failure, failure …?
This is nothing new – It goes back to the Garden of Eden. It started
off so well – but it turned out so badly. Is there a way out of this –
failure, failure, failure …? Lord, we thank You that there is! Jesus has
succeeded – where everyone else failed. “There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin, He only could unlock the gate of heaven and
let us in.”
You call us, Lord, to return to You. You promise to welcome us (2 Chronicles 30:9). Where does our returning come from? Where does our rejoicing come from? They both come from You. You put it into our hearts - to return to You (2 Chronicles 30:12). What joy there is for us when we return to You - "The good Lord pardons every one who sets his heart to seek God" (2 Chronicles 30:18-19).
