Just For Today . . . On Rocks #1

Dear Holy Friends,   I was doing some reading this weekend and ended up searching out references to rocks. The thing is there are both good and bad things I find. This week we're going to have a look at them. Sin ensnares us, sometimes it sneaks up and catches us unaware, other times we walk willingly into it. But, always there is grace and mercy when we run from it. And, when we judge someone else for their sin, we would do well to see Jesus as He wrote in the dirt.   In his Grip, Chandra   On Rocks #1   standing in the circle clenching it in their hands ready to wing it hard knowing where it should land . . . crouching, afraid, alone she braces for the onslaught unsure where exactly he went she just knows she was caught . . .   Jesus drew in the sand slowly and spoke words for us all the one without sin go first that's how she will fall . . .   look at the rocks we hold remember sins of our own see her worried eyes, ponder at the grace Jesus shows . . . drop our rocks on the ground and reach in love to her find the meaning of forgiveness mercy makes sin just a blur . . .   wherever you are today throwing rocks or in the sin Jesus offers the only way His perfect love casts out sin . . . so run to Him arms outstretched dropping rocks to the ground mercy at the foot of the cross grace in Him always found . . .   ~Chandra Lynn Smith, 1/24/11~
